There's 2 api calls
Get all issues in a sprint
that is part of the board api call.
get all issues for a sprint
That is part of the sprint api call.
What is the difference between these?
Hi @jodywhite
In the Jira software API their are indeed 2 calls
1: This gets all sprint items on the board, so issues in the sprint but not on the board will not be shown in the call result.
2: This gets all issues in the sprint.
This makes sense, but how can an issue be "in a sprint but not on the board"?
That depends on your workflow and what statuses are visible on the board.
You could have issues in the sprint in a certain workflow status, that are not relevant for the dev, but maybe only for QA's.
If QA's have their own sprint board and will only see issues there based on certain workflows statuses from the workflow.
And theses statuses are not visible on the sprint board for the Dev's.
Then using the API to get all sprint items from the board can get different results.
Could be the same as based on the filter of a board that excludes certain items from a sprint.
That is very helpful! Thank you.
