YouTrack - Historical issue snapshots

259 views Asked by At

The new YouTrack API is missing the old Issue history /rest/issue/{issue}/history end-point which our code heavily depends on. There's only the Issue activities /api/issues/{issueID}/activities end-point, which returns only delta differences between changes from this never-ending list of diff/activity categories.

Is there some simple way to get a list of issue's historical snapshots, or do I actually have to parse all these activity categories and somehow merge them together to (re)implement this whole thing by myself?

The /history endpoint didn't provide a history snapshot either, but /activity does output much more data indeed. Yet, that's the way to do it — traverse through data and build a snapshot based on the provided timestamps.
