How to delete active and closed sprint in JIRA v7.6.8?

Cathy Zhang

Hello,

I am new to JIRA and just started using JIRA in our project. I am a JIRA admin but still cannot delete active and closed sprints. The JIRA version seems to be v7.6.8.

1. If a sprint has been closed and we don't want to see it in the sprint drop down list in JIRA reports such as Burndown Chart, how should I delete it or hide it in all reports?

2. If a sprint has started, the "Delete sprint" link disappears in the ellipse (...) menu.  How can I delete it?

Thanks very much for your help!

Thanks,

Cathy

The issue has been resolved by clicking "Delete sprint" button on the Sprint Report page (doesn't matter if the sprint has issues associated).

For the started sprint, I use a workaround by completing the sprint first so that the Delete button is available. Then I can delete it.
