Get id of the active sprint

andrea.giordano

Hi all,
I'm implementing an application that, using the JIRA REST API, automatically creates issues: I would also like to assign them to the current active sprint. To do so, I've retrieved the customfield_XXXX code of the "Sprint" field and implemented the following alike body request:

/rest/api/3/issue

{
    "fields": {
       "project":
       {
          "key": "SP"
       },
       "summary": "Sprint issue test",
       "description": "REST APIs are great.",
       "issuetype": {
          "name": "Bug"
       },
       "customfield_XXXX": activeSprintID
	}
}

Still, I need an automatic way to retrieve the ID of the current active sprint and I'm trying to use this REST API to get it:

/rest/agile/1.0/board/{boardId}/sprint?state=active&maxResults=1

which apparently does not work and links me to a dead link.

How can I retrieve the ID of the current active sprint to embed it in the previous body request?

Thanks all,
Andrea
