Bookmark History
Every bookmark maintains a history of the changes made to it. You can view this history alongside the Jira issue’s native changelog in the Bookmark Details modal.
Accessing History
- Open the Bookmarks dashboard via Apps → Bookmarks.
- Click any bookmark row to open the Bookmark Details modal.
- Click the History tab.
The History tab displays two sections: bookmark history at the top, followed by the Jira issue changelog below.
History Events
Simple Bookmarks records the following event types:
| Event | Icon | When it is recorded |
|---|---|---|
| created | Green badge | The bookmark was first created |
| edited | Blue badge | The note field was changed |
| priority_changed | Yellow badge | The priority was set, changed, or cleared |
| tags_updated | Purple badge | Tags were added or removed |
Each event entry shows:
- The colored icon badge for the event type
- A relative timestamp (e.g. “3 days ago”)
- The display name of the user who made the change
- A description of what changed
Viewing Changes
For events that modify a field value — such as priority_changed and tags_updated — the history entry includes a diff display showing what the value was before and after the change:
- The old value appears with a strikethrough style
- The new value appears highlighted in green
This makes it easy to trace exactly how a bookmark has evolved over time.
Jira Issue History
Below the bookmark history, the History tab also shows the Jira issue’s native changelog — the same history you would see inside the Jira issue itself. This includes field changes such as status transitions, assignee updates, priority changes made in Jira, and any other tracked changes from Jira’s own audit log.
Having both histories in one view lets you correlate changes you made to a bookmark with what was happening on the issue at the same time.
