Need to write JQL to find issues where a custom field changed over the week?

[Denise Spahn]

I have a custom field that I want to monitor for changes over the course of the week. Any suggestions as to how I might write JQL to do that?

Unfortunately history searches are not supported on custom fields so you wouldnt be able to do so with JQL out of the box.

Thank you. Just curious, but is this a restriction for jira-cloud that I am only able to use JQL out of the box? If we were using jira-server, could I do it?

[Randy]

It's the same on server.

Here's the request to Atlassian from 2012 and response from them posted in the ticket in 2015.

Thanks again! I took a look and voted for the jira-cloud suggestion.

Randy,

What about for non-custom fields?  How would I find all issues that have had the Fix Version/s field changed in the past 24 hours?

Thanks,

Dan

JQL:

fixVersion changed after -1d
