Question
We are currently using Power BI connectors to retrieve Jira Cloud issue link information. For example, when querying data from the last seven days, the connector successfully returns issues and newly created or updated issue links; it does not appear to provide information regarding issue links that have been deleted.
Could you please advise whether there is a method to retrieve details of deleted issue links, including when the deletion occurred and the links that were removed?
Answer
Historical changes associated with issue links (including their deletion) are tracked through the "Histories" table. For more visibility, you can filter this table by the “Linked Issues” field and check the records with blank new values specifically for removal cases:
