How to send a notification if the open sprint has a total story points higher than X.

Christopher Pacheco

In my sprint board, we have the active sprint with our stories and story points defined. I would like to create an automation rule that send a notification to our Microsoft Teams when the story points is over a certain limit. 40 points for example.

In the image below, you can see that the total story point estimate is 38, how to I get this value and use it as a condition in Jira Automation. Thank you.

Hello @Christopher Pacheco

Welcome to the community!

How often do you want to check the story points in the sprint?

It is fairly simple to create a rule that checks the total story points for a sprint when that sprint is started.

It would be more complex to recheck the total points when:

- an issue is added or removed from the sprint

- the story points are changed for an issue in the sprint.

I think just checking every X hours or at 8am each day is a fair trigger. The key is to catch fairly early that we overbook the sprints story points. I will try your answer and give feedback soon. Thank you very much.

Do you have a named sprint that you want to check on this schedule, or do you want to check all currently Active sprints?

Generally Automation Rules are intended to operate against issues. Unless you use a Sprint related trigger or have an explicit named sprint you want to check, it will be more challenging to figure out dynamically which sprints should be check for excessive points.
