How can I add a gadget to our dashboard of our current sprint?

Question

Hi,

We have a nifty dashboard that displays almost everything we would want to display.

On our dashboard, is there a way to add a list view of stories in our current sprint?

-Now I know a filter can do this, but what we would like for to happen is when we close a sprint and start a new sprint, it will update automatically....but I am not sure how.

I am researched, looked around in the gadgets (trail & error) but have not found a solution.

Please help!

create this JQL - project = xxxxx and sprint in openSprints(), or similar. Save it and share it. On the dashboard add Filter results gadget (or gadget of your choice). Associate the filter to the gadget.

The key here is openSprints() as it will stay current.

I'm curious why a filter results gadget isn't working for you.  Are you using "sprint in openSprints()" in your filter?   This should automatically update the filter results when you move from one sprint to the next.

The only wrinkle would be if you're doing concurrent sprints, in which case you'll get issues for all open sprints.

Hi, The filter gadget works, I was not aware of the "sprint in openSprints()" until just now. I just tried that it works! Thank you both so much!
