When I have multiple Jira projects sharing same sprint name, how can I know which sprint should be chosen in Jira ticket for current projects?
There is no indication which sprint belongs to which projects.
You can always rename the sprints thereby not having this problem. Scrum Master or whoever has 'Manage Sprints' permissions and is creating the sprints, can change the sprint name, dates, etc.
Plus, sprints don't "belong" to projects. They include issues from one or many projects.
But if I choose a wrong sprint ID(same sprint name), it will be lost from my own project backlog, because the sprint value is wrong.
So before choosing the sprint, make sure to rename the Sprints so that there are no conflicting names. Inform your Scrum Master or whoever has access to 'Manage Sprints' to rename the sprints.
Hi @[deleted] ,
The sprint is globally visible, so I think the easiest way is to define the sprint naming rules by the team to distinguish them, such as the project name + iteration start date.
It is indeed a good practice, but does not answer the question.
Let say even if you had a convention like this in place, but someone does not follow it, you want to find which project it comes form and help them follow the best practice.
Sprints don't belong to projects, so the question is not actually answerable.
There is a workaround to delete these orphaned future sprints..:Add one of the orphaned sprints to an Issue from any project. Go to the Backlog view, and then you can delete the sprint from there.
