How to search history of a custom field

Hello,

we migrate some tickets in order to modify the IssueType.

we had a field "story points" which is a numbre value.

When we migrate (for some reasons), the field is empty after migration.

I would like to know if there is an app or jdl to find this tickets in order to make a bulk modification : 

"Storypoints was 1" (beacuse the value is in history

Thanks a lot

Hello @Aurélie Pilette 

There are a few apps that help you explore issue history in Jira Cloud.

So what I see with the extension is to see history or make dashboard / reports.

But I don't see the extension I can use to filter on history of a custom field.

I would like to have the list of issues had a certain value for a custom field

You might want to check the apps that extend searching capabilities.

The only one I am particularly familiar with is Enhanced Search from Adaptavist. I know that it does not have the capability to search issue history. One of the others might.

Hi @Aurélie Pilette 

It is not easy to search for changes in custom fields as JQL doesn't support them.

I can speak for the Issue History for Jira app as my team developed it. You can see all changes for any custom field if you add it to the table, but there is no option to search for changes like with JQL.
