I’m looking for a way to generate a report that includes not only the time entries logged by me (or another specific user) but also details like comments and connections to tickets or epics. Although I’ve seen several similar approaches, none completely match what I need. In essence, I need a straightforward method, without extra plugins, to review all my work logs from today, complete with the specific details I recorded about the tasks I completed.
I had a similar requirement recently and managed to develop a workaround that might help. I used Jira’s native filtering system to generate a list of issues where I had logged time for the day. Then I exported the list to a spreadsheet, merging it with additional data fields such as comments and associated epics. This approach isn’t fully automated, but it allowed me to extract and combine the details I needed. It required some manual setup, yet proved effective without having to rely on extra plugins, and it can be tailored further to better suit specific reporting needs.
I addressed a similar challenge by making effective use of Jira’s custom fields and JQL to create a unique identifier for each day’s work. This allowed me to filter issues where I logged time and included detailed comments directly within Jira before exporting the data. A simple custom script then merged these entries to reveal the relationships between tickets and epics. While the initial configuration took some effort, this method provided a tailored solution that delivered an exact overview of my daily work without needing additional plugins.
hey, i experiemced simlar issues. i ended up using jql queries plus jira’s built in filter functions to combine work log and comment data inline. it needed some script tinkering but came out decent. maybe try tweaking it for better accuracy. good luck!
