JQL for what past sprint had at start?

Bud Herz_4dzuwt

I know we can search by

• Sprint ID
• Date range
• Status (was in, was not, etc)

I don't understand why I can't search for all issues that were in a sprint based on the start date (expressed as a date range).

My example returns some issues, but compared to the Burndown for the same sprint the counts do not match. Start list and end of sprint list.

Example - 
project = XX AND issuetype IN (Bug, Story, Task) AND sprint =327 AND status WAS NOT "Almost" DURING ("2024/11/26","2024/11/27") ORDER BY key DESC

• We've had updates to status names so "Almost" is used to include everything else.
• Adjusting date range for the end of the sprint window returns the exact same list
• Most sprints had bugs added so I know the counts should never match

So the query sort of works but obviously isn't returning what I thought it should.

Hi @Bud Herz 

Yup, that is a long-standing request to add to basic JQL features: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-72007

The workarounds include marketplace apps to compare the sprint dates (and / or changelog), lots of automation execution with custom fields, etc.

Kind regards,
Bill
