Jira：某个时间点所有门票的状态

Question

I want to pull out month-by-month stats from a jira project, which shows the number of tickets that were in each state at the start of each month (similar to the Cummulative Flow Diagram, but extractable).

Is there a way in JQL or SQL to get the status of all tickets in a project at a specific point in time?

Answer 1

If you want to do this via SQL for one specific date, Atlassian provides instructions for related useful queries on JIRA 4.x . A particularly-relevant one would seem to be the "Find Statuses of all issues in a project on a given date" query, but it will be a bit of an uphill battle to do this over a varying date range.

These queries are still mostly relevant for more modern versions of JIRA, with the main concern being that the JI.pkey column will be blank in JIRA 6+. To get this data back, you first need to join with the project table with ON project.id=JI.project , and then synthesize the issue key yourself as P.pkey || '-' || JI.issuenum P.pkey || '-' || JI.issuenum P.pkey || '-' || JI.issuenum . You will also probably need to apply typecasts to some of the joins (at least on some databases) since a few joins are trying to relate integer-typed columns with text columns.

For reference, their JIRA 4.x query was the following:

SELECT JI.pkey, STEP.STEP_ID
FROM (SELECT STEP_ID, ENTRY_ID
      FROM OS_CURRENTSTEP
      WHERE OS_CURRENTSTEP.START_DATE < '<your date>'
UNION SELECT STEP_ID, ENTRY_ID
      FROM OS_HISTORYSTEP
      WHERE OS_HISTORYSTEP.START_DATE < '<your date>'
      AND OS_HISTORYSTEP.FINISH_DATE > '<your date>' ) As STEP,
(SELECT changeitem.OLDVALUE AS VAL, changegroup.ISSUEID AS ISSID
      FROM changegroup, changeitem
      WHERE changeitem.FIELD = 'Workflow'
      AND changeitem.GROUPID = changegroup.ID
UNION SELECT jiraissue.WORKFLOW_ID AS VAL, jiraissue.id as ISSID
      FROM jiraissue) As VALID,
jiraissue as JI
WHERE STEP.ENTRY_ID = VALID.VAL
AND VALID.ISSID = JI.id
AND JI.project = <proj_id>;

If you are open to using a commercial add-on, Arsenale Dataplane can do exactly what you want in a few clicks using the Issue Values Snapshots by Date report. Disclaimer: I work for the company that makes this product.

With JQL you can only look for Issues not for States. About the specific point of time, you can only get information about the current status, unless you develop a complex script that takes in account the current situation and the changes made after the date you want to check (ChangeHistoryManager).

On the other hand, you can configure a Board with a pie chart (in example), where you set the Status field to be shown. Additionaly, you can create a Notification so that each first of month you get an email with this information.

Probably more interesting the scripting solution, but absolutely longer in time, and more complex.
