      Issue Summary

      Jira Cloud audit log export confirmation shows total available events instead of filtered event count

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Log in to Jira Cloud as a user with access to the audit log.
      2. Go to AdministrationSystemAudit log.
      3. Confirm that the audit log shows a large number of events (e.g. 1,000 events in “Available history”).
      4. Apply filters so that the list is narrowed down, for example:
        1. Set a Date/Period filter to a recent time range, and/or
        2. Filter by Category / Summary / User so that only a subset of entries is shown (e.g. around 100 events).
      5. Click Export (CSV or JSON) for the audit log.

      Expected Results

      The export confirmation should accurately reflect what will be exported. For example:

      Actual Results

      When the export file is downloaded and opened:

      • The file actually contains only the filtered events (~100),
      • Not all 1,000 events from the full available history.

      So the UI text is misleading: it suggests that the export will include all events from the full audit log history, but in reality the export correctly respects the filters and only includes the filtered subset.

      Workaround

      • The export itself works correctly and respects the current filters; only the wording in the confirmation dialog is incorrect.
      • Admins can:
        • Check the filtered count in the UI before exporting, and
        • Confirm that the number of rows in the exported file matches the filtered view (rather than the “available history” count shown in the dialog).
