Automation for issue moved out of the sprint

Question

I am trying to create an automation:

When issue is moved from active sprint to a future sprint, add a label called 'delayed'.

To do this, I need to inspect the value we have changed from:

However, I cannot determine the state of that sprint.

I tried a JQL condition:

changelog.sprint.fromString in openSprints() - does nothing

{{changelog.sprint.fromString}} in openSprints() - broken syntax

I tried advanced field compare with smart value:
{{changelog.sprint.from}} but I have nothing to compare it to.

What are my options?

I posted my solution in another Community Q&A regarding a rule that sends a notification when a sprint is added or removed from an issue.

My posting has a link to my Github account that contains the exported A4J rule, screenshots of the rule, and a demo recording.

We can use it as our base rule and modify it to fit your use case.  The rule can find the 'changed' sprint and send a notification if it is Open.  We can change it to send a notification if it is Future.

I recommend first having it working in your test system and then making the adjustment for your 'future' use case.  Let me know if you help with adjustments.

Hello @kate.yoak

Welcome to the community.

@Bill Sheboy provided a response on another post that you may find useful. The title says "when added to", but the content is asking about automation for both issues being added to and removed from sprints.
