How to delete a completed sprint without any issues in it?

Question

Hi everybody!

During some migrations I created some sprints, put a ticket in the first one, and then started and closed them all (6 in total) one by one.

I dont need them now anymore, because creating them was not necessary at all.

But I can not figure out how to delete those. I can not delete them, because they are not open. I can not reopen them, because there are no issues in them. I can not put issues into that sprint, because they are already completed.

Thanks in advance,

Berend

I stand corrected, the sprint is going to disappear from view even with the new issue. Maybe it's just not possible to delete a sprint once you've started it. Sort of makes sense as there is a lot of information in there once you started it...

Hi Berend,

I can delete sprints in JIRA Server 7.1.10 as long as I can see them and they're not Active. Maybe you can add a new 'dummy' issue to the sprint, Resolve this issue, remove the other issues, finally complete and delete the sprint?
