Support for issue/issueIdOrKey/changelog

[cberg2048]

I am unable to get the full changelog of an issue. Currently issue?expand=changelog supplies the most recent 100 histories and there is no pagination supported.

Support for the below functionality would be ideal:

https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/#api-rest-api-3-issue-issueIdOrKey-changelog-get

Does this already exist in some way? I am having difficulty finding it.

Seems new in the v3 API (at least it's not available in the latest Jira Server REST API reference) and I cannot find anything which would implement support for this API endpoint.

Hi!,

I´m also interested in this. Any plans on adding it to the roadmap? Thanks.

Responding out of courtesy, cannot do much right now.

Progress has pretty much stalled (see #896 #909). Top priority on the roadmap is getting the CI to work again and be able to start accepting features. However, this isn't trivial (self hosted vs. cloud hosted Jira instances have APIs which started to diverge during the time the CI was broken) and no one has stepped up yet to take on this task 😐 .

Thanks, Addono. Sorry to hear. I'm not much of a python programmer to be able to lend a hand.

I'm using the following at the moment:

from jira import JIRA
from jira.resources import Resource

class JiraChangelog(Resource):

    def __init__(self, options, session, raw=None):
        Resource.__init__(self, "issue/{0}/changelog/{1}", options, session)
        if raw:
            self._parse_raw(raw)

# add changelogs function that loads all the changelogs using paging
# if the original JIRA class ever adds this method then I could switch to using it instead
class JiraEx(JIRA):

    def changelogs(self, issue_key):
        return self._fetch_pages(JiraChangelog, "values", "issue/%s/changelog" % issue_key, maxResults = False)

@kadimgh thanks for posting this. It’s kinda work but throws an error for me (Jira Datacenter).
