Sprint Goal - New Navigation

Laura Fromm

Hi there,

I changed the layout to the new navigation and I can't find the sprint goals on the active sprint page anymore (in the old navigation, it was shown below the sprint name). I couldn't find any hint in the documentation. Can I turn them on somewhere or are they gone?

Thank you in advance!

PS: I know I can still edit them in "edit sprint", I want them to be shown on the active sprint page

HI @Laura Fromm

In the backlog view it's displayed below the Sprint Name. In the Active Sprint view it's not displayed. You have to click on the Sprint icon next to Complete Sprint button. It will displayed, Sprint Name, Dates and Goal.

Seems strange to remove these from the active sprint view. Don't we want all of our teams to keep the sprint goal in mind?

Marco Rosin

@Florian Bonniec Couldn't agree more with @Dwight Holman . Having the sprint goal front of mind is very important and so having to navigate away from the board to view the goal seems very unusual.

A sprint without a visible sprint goal is not worth the issues within a sprint board. Without it, we are forced to live the Feature Factory life, to exaggerate a bit @Florian Bonniec

If I can make a wish, please make it even better visible than in the old design. For my taste, the backlog view can stay like in grey and small font. But on the board view, it should be at least as big and bold as the sprint name. The sprint name is just a short representation of the whole the sprint goal IMO which leads to such a hierarchy:

1. In sprint XYZ, we aim to achieve ABC. --> headline

2. For this we plan to task 1,2,3,... --> task board and it's tickets

Did somebody already make this a request?
I fully agree that the sprint goal should always we visible. Very confusing that they decided to remove it.

There is a ticket for that already -please, vote. How could they remove that, unbelievable?! https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-93338

This is not the answer, but for those who share your team's Jira board during DSU AND use TamperMonkey or GreaseMonkey, this is a way to give the sprint goal visibility. Don't forget to update the 2 lines that say "<YOUR JIRA DOMAIN HERE>" with something like mysite.atlassian.net or whatever it is. Also, I've only tested this on projects that have one active sprint at a time. YMMV. Hope it helps.
