Report generation with Issue History for Jira [Table View]
You can arrange the report the way you need with the settings below.
1. Filter Work Items
Select one of the following options to get the list of work items for:
Assignee
Filter
Label
Project
Reporter
Sprint
“Updated by” menu with single + multi-select users
Also, you can filter work items by a user/users who have made updates.
Select one user:
Or multiple users:
To sort the changelog, click on a column header.
2. Choose the Date Range
Use the functionality of the Date range to customize report timeframes.
You can select the time period you want to get the report based on:
It can be a given period (today, yesterday, last week, this month, etc.), or you can select/enter the custom time duration (Start&End dates).
3. Column Manager
You can add custom and standard fields to the grid using the ‘Columns’ menu to manipulate output data.
Date, Work Item Key, and Updated by fields are chosen by default. You can add others (e.g., Status, Assignee, Description, etc.) according to your needs.
Active fields (1) show which work item fields are included in the report and all changes for them.
Updated fields (2) are all other work item fields you can include in the table and get changes for them.
The number in the right corner shows how many changes were made to each field.
Drag and drop each field to set their layout order in the table. The upper field appears first after the predefined columns.
Changes grouped for each work item
Click on any column header to sort it, and you will get the task's changes assembled in groups.
Click the drop-down arrow to expand/collapse the updates.
If you want to return sorting only by date, exclude all other options from the sorting (e.g., work item key, status, priority, etc.)

Switch ON/OFF the highlighted view
Focus attention only on rows where changes were made.
Click the button to switch ON/OFF the highlighted changes:
Navigator for the wide table
If you have added many fields and columns to track, the width of the change table will expand. Our navigator allows you to see where you are and quickly scroll to the desired field where the changes were.
Work item history report
After the previous settings, you will receive a report with the changes that have been made in the work items you need to see.
The main report grid displays the data according to the default and custom columns you selected before in the column manager.
User activity report
There are two options to view the activity of a particular user.
Use the “Updated by” menu, type in the name, or select the person you need from the drop-down list.
Choose the user directly from the table. Hover the cursor over a specific person’s name, and you will see a user card. Click “Show user activity”.
Empty State Troubleshooter
When no changes are found in your report, it usually means the filter conditions don’t match any data. That’s where the Empty State Troubleshooter comes in.
This built-in visual assistant automatically detects problems with your filters and guides you with helpful suggestions on how to adjust them. Whether it's a date range, user selection, or field mismatch, Troubleshooter will point out the problem so you can quickly get back to viewing your work item history.
Changes grouping
Follow the use cases if you’d like to select just one or several work items.
