I think the automation tooling is great! But I have not figured out yet how to accomplish the following. Hopefully someone can help:

Upon start of a new sprint, I want to create a specific task (like Manual post-deploy steps - {{sprint.name}}). But what I have not figured out yet is how I can set the value for this sprint. It might be that we have a couple of hours/ days in delay closing the administration of the old sprint, so we could have two sprints active. Then which one will the system pick if I choose "Active sprint board"?

Hi @Juliane Schmidt 

Have you tried to use the sprint start/end dates as conditions, and then only proceed for the latest one?  For example, checking if {{sprint.endDate}} is in the future (after today).

Please look here for more sprint, smart value attributes:
