Hey,

is there a way to configure Jira where time logging is only allowed if the respective issue is in a active sprint?

Kind regards

You might be able to do it indirectly, but the short answer is "no".  There's no way to tie a permission to a sprint. 

What you can do is tie the permission to log work to a status.  With workflow properties, you can say "jira.permission.work.denied" on a status, so if your workflow matches the the way the sprint works, you can get there.  See https://support.atlassian.com/jira-cloud-administration/docs/use-workflow-properties/ for more details on properties.

Imagine a simple case where you've got a workflow of To Do -> In Progress -> Done, then an issue would move into "in progress" when it is picked up and worked on during a sprint.  In this case, you would put the block on work logging on the "to do" status.
