Handoff Receipt
Who held this issue, how long, and in which status it changed hands, straight from the issue history.
Jira Cloud · Version 2.2.0 · on the Atlassian Marketplace
Free of charge. Installation and licensing run through Atlassian.
What it does
“Who actually had this ticket, and when?” Jira’s changelog knows, but nobody enjoys reading it: assignee changes, status changes and timestamps are scattered across dozens of entries. Handoff Receipt turns them into a clean handoff trail right on the issue:
- Handoff trail, newest first (up to 300 changelog entries): who passed the issue to whom and when, computed live from Jira’s own history.
- Holding time per person, in full days: completed days are counted, never rounded up.
- Status at every handoff, with historical names: status names come from the changelog itself. Renamed or deleted statuses appear exactly as they were called at the time.
- Current holder read from the issue, never guessed: the app reads who holds the issue from the issue itself; if the visible history cannot explain the holding time, the panel says exactly that instead of estimating.
- Zero storage: the sources are the changelog and the fields of the issue itself. The app persists nothing.
Getting started
- Install the app for your Jira Cloud site from the Atlassian Marketplace listing.
- Open any issue and show the Handoff Receipt panel via the issue’s app actions.
- Read the trail: the current holder with holding time on top, every handoff with its status below. No setup required.
Permissions and data
Handoff Receipt runs entirely on Atlassian Forge and requests exactly one permission:
read:jira-work: read-only calls executed with your own permissions (asUser) and scoped to the single issue whose panel you opened: the app pages that issue’s changelog (up to 300 entries) and reads the issue itself (created date, assignee, status), so the current holder always comes from the issue, not from a derivation. The trail is computed in memory and rendered immediately.
No writes to Jira, no background jobs, no scheduled scans, and no storage of any kind: the app persists nothing, not even account ids; the people shown are read live from Jira at render time. There is nothing to delete, export or leak. No external servers, no data egress, no AI, no tracking, no third-party services.
