Filtering and showing changes
All users who change tasks in Jira are recorded in the Jira system logs. Any update you make (status, priority, assignee, or other fields) is a new change that will be added to the system log.
As a user, you can actually see all the changes at the bottom of the task in the tab, BUT it's not convenient when you want to see specific changes in your projects as you have to open every task one by one.
The Issue History for Jira add-on can read the full task log "on the fly,” parse the data, format it, and show it to the user. The app also presents a history of changes for one task but with flexible filters and colored highlighting:
If you need ALL changes on all tasks for a group of colleagues or a project, go for the main add-on window. Here, you can see ALL changes according to your filters (by time, by the user who made the changes, by projects, by JQL requests, etc).
Important: The Issue History for Jira add-on does not store changes in its own database – we parse the selected changes "on the fly".
Restoring deleted issues
The add-on also allows you to return tasks if they have been deleted.
How does it work?
To begin, activate the option to track deleted issues. The app will intercept calls to destroy tasks and save them.
How do we store information about deleted tasks?
All information about deleted tasks is stored in Jira issue properties. This means that the information about the deleted issue is only available on the Jira Cloud in your account and is not stored on the addon's servers.

What information do we store on our resources?
We can only store configuration information that helps you work with our add-on, such as:
the latest changes to the selected add-on filters
saving reports in the add-on (Save&Load option)
saving project access options (Permissions section)
sorting order of display elements in the main window of the add-on table
