Hello Marzi,

Within Jira each issue individually has the History tab that can be used to view the changes that occur on the issues, but there is not a way to generate a in application Report on these items.

However, you can use the Issue API and expand the Changelog of the issue which is the history of all changes of the given issue from the History tab of a given issue, to generate a repot on these items outside of jira:

• https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/REST/7.9.1/#api/2/issue-getIssue

Using a format like:

http://{BASE_URL}/jira/rest/api/2/issue/{issueIdOrKey}?expand=changelog

 Some additional info and alternate use case and suggestions for the changelog be seen in the following Community posts:
