Hi @Pramod gautam 

You can find some ways in the article below:

How to export issue history from Jira?

If you're on Cloud, check out Issue History for Jira. The app is developed by my team as a journal for every update. Here you can download history as XLSX or CSV files.

Hi @Pramod gautam -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

What problem are you trying to solve by downloading the history?  For example, is there a specific reporting need?

Knowing that may help the community to offer you suggestions other than downloading issue history.

Kind regards,
Bill

@Pramod gautam welcome to the community! 

By default Jira does not allow to export o r download the history.

You have to use a third party app. take a look to this apps (both are paid apps):

• https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1220385/issue-history?hosting=cloud&tab=overview&utm_source=Atlassian_Community&utm_medium=refferal&utm_campaign=Article_How-to-export-issue-history_20211214
• https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1211499/issue-history-collector-see-history?hosting=cloud&tab=overview

Other option is using API REST to get that information, in the query you should add "?expand=changelog". This is the URL:   https://your-instance-name.atlassian.net/rest/api/2/issue/JIRA-ID-1?expand=changelog

Here you have an article to do this via API REST:

Hi,

you have to go to the settings cog (in the top right of your cloud instance) and access to the "Apps" menu. You need to be "site admin" to install apps.

Inside the apps, search the name of the app, it will redirect you to the marketplace and you can install from there.

best regards,
