By default, the last 30 days are selected in the calendar.
After selecting the desired date or range, click Update to confirm the selection.
You can only select the maximum 1-year range. In case of selecting a wider range, the corresponding message will show up and the Update button will be disabled.
With the Projects you can filter the action in the results that were done in certain projects. The existing (projects that the current user is allowed to access) projects will be displayed in the dropdown after typing the first letter:

User filter enables you to select a certain user or users on the instance, for which the action log should be displayed in the results. To choose the user, start typing the name, surname, or email of the user. The possible options will be displayed in the dropdown after the first letter:

You can select the desired user by checking the checkboxes on the left of the name of the user. The selected users will move to the top of the list:

You can clear the selected users with “Clear selected items“.
Besides users, you can select users Group(s), People in Project(s) and/or Organizations(s). After selecting filters, click Generate Activity Log button to see the results based on the selected filters.
All the filters work in a way to filter USERS. For example, when you select a project under People in Project filter, all the users that are added to the People in the selected project, will be filtered. All the filters work with OR condition. The selection of the filters is not mandatory - if you select no filters, the results will show the data for ALL the users.
The filters will remain selected after page change or refresh.

Versions
You can filter the activity log by a specific version. Click the “Version” option — a Project dropdown will appear first. Select a project to load the available versions for that project.

- Click “+ More” → selects “Version”
- A Project dropdown appears first (required) — because the Version API needs a
projectKeyto retrieve versions - After selecting a project, a Version list (radio buttons) appears showing all versions for that project
- Each version in the list displays the project key in brackets for clarity (e.g.,
Version 2.0 (CP)) - Only one version can be selected at a time (radio selection, not checkboxes)
- Click “Apply” → then “Generate Activity Log”
JQL Search
You can also enhance search using JQL. If you already preliminary have selected the filters in Basic Search, by toggling to JQL, the filters can be enhanced additionally with JQL. Pre-defined selections will remain and filter the results:

With JQL you can filter only the actions related to the work items.
With the buttons on the right side of the text field, you can:
- Expand the JQL field;
- See the help page for JQL (will be opened on a new tab);
- Display results based on the JQL term (identical to clicking Generate Activity Log button).
After typing in the JQL term, click Generate Activity Log button to see the results based on the selected filters.
Due to the limitation of the corresponding Atlassian API, it is possible to retrieve at most 1,000 work items. If your search retrieves more work items, you will see the corresponding message and refine your search to view more actions.
Adding a JQL filter limits the filter scope to only show actions performed in work items, and exclude other types of activities.
