Idea: when moving an idea on the backlog, all ideas have the lastUpdatedDate modified

XMLWordPrintable

      Issue Summary

      After moving an idea backlog (be it between columns or its position), the lastUpdatedDate of all ideas on that backlog is updated, even though the Audit History of these ideas is not updated (where only the idea that was moved has the Audit Updated).

      See as an example the idea below:

        {
          "id": 139,
          "featureName": "IZ_139",
          "ownerId": "661727",
          "createdBy": "661727",
          "createDate": "2023-05-05T12:17:47.857Z",
          "lastUpdatedDate": "2025-09-03T13:02:52.447Z",
          "title": "Diego Test Idea to Be converted to Feature 1",
          "groupId": 21,
          "productId": null,
          "status": 1,
          "isExternal": 0,
          "description": "Diego Test Idea to Be converted to Feature 1",
          "companyId": null,
          "categoryId": 1,
          "isPublic": 0,
          "self": "https://alignsupport.jiraalign.com/rest/align/api/2/ideas/139"
        },
      

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Go to Ideation
      2. Go to Manage Backlog
      3. Move one idea from New to Open
      4. Run an API call to the Idea endpoint with a filter like "lastUpdatedDate ge 2025-09-02T00:00:00Z"
      5. See how all Ideas are returned by the API call
      6. Open a different Idea than the one that was moved, and see how the Audit History was not updated

      Expected Results

      lastUpdatedDate would be updated only when an idea is directly updated.

      Actual Results

      lastUpdatedDate is updated when an Idea is moved on the backlog.

      Workaround

      Currently there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available
