period sprint

[Ivan Andrieiev]

I need to find tasks for a specialist that he worked on before the sprint (two weeks), but at the same time not to use the sprint field as a filter feature. Is it possible to do this?

Hi @Ivan Andrieiev 

You can try JQL search like suggested before, but issues someone worked on can be in different statuses (to do, to review, done), and created time can be different. 

If you want to get the full scope of tasks assigned to some user, check out Issue History for Jira. My team developed the add-on as a journal for past activities.
For your case:
1. Filter issues by assignee you need.
2. Select the date range.

You can also add any standard or custom field to monitor its changes.

Try if it can help you, and let me know if you have any questions.

Hi @Ivan Andrieiev,

It al depends on how you define worked on and how you specific you can/would like to be with the time settings.

Based on the information in your question, I would redirect you to this community article about history searches in Jira. There is a good chance you may find what you need there. If not, you should be more precise about how you think you may find the elements needed to filter on.

Hope this helps!

Hello @Ivan Andrieiev 

If I understand you correctly, are you looking for a way to search for all issues/tasks that were assigned to someone before a particular sprint?

If that is what you meant, then you can use a JQL query. 

For example, let's assume that:

• the name of this "specialist" is "John Doe"
• the sprint started 2 weeks ago, and it ended today. (so the duration is 2 weeks in total).
• You want to find all tasks that John doe was assigned to (that he worked on) before the sprint.

assignee in ("John Doe") AND created < -2w order by created DESC

Or for instance, if you wanted to find all issues that John Doe was assigned to and were also completed/done, then you could also use this JQL query

assignee in ("John Doe") AND status = Done AND created <= -2w

If the above isn't what you meant, then please let me know and I'll try responding accordingly.

Kind regards,
Hamza
