Click the Agile link's down-arrow in the top navigation bar, then select your preferred board from the resulting dropdown menu.
Click Backlog.
Hover over the sprint name or date field, click and type the new name or date, then press Enter.
Note, the Start Date and End Date are not specified until you start the sprint.

I am also seeking a solution for this. Having the end date of a sprint determined only by when the sprint was closed makes it impossible to preserve consistency in the reports for the reality of sprint periods if for any of many reasons the sprint is not closed on the actual date it ends.

However, the solution presented here does not work (for me at least). Clicking the sprint end date does nothing. Am I missing something?

Thank you.

LATER: My issue is different and is for Jira Cloud. Modifying the end date was no problem once I understood it better. The real problem is the sprint close date. If a sprint isn't closed on the exact right date...too bad. The Jira reports are off from what is desired. Permanently.

I am having the same problem. This solution is no longer valid. I think the documentation needs updating for 7.0.

Actually, it works when I hover on SOME sprints, but not the current Sprint.

To update the Sprint end date in JIRA v7.6

* Go to backlog

* Click on the field you want to update (ex: if you want to update the end date, click on end date)

Arjon Kodde

That did the trick, Thanks.

Note that the date changes may take a few minutes to reflect in your Sprint board (from my experience).

Mary Zuranski

I was able to change the end date but it never updated on the sprint board. Any ideas?

Mary Zuranski

took about half an hour to update.

Hi,
I tried the solution you offer.
but my main question is how can I update future sprint dates.
The dates effects my Gantt

Would modifying the start time of an active sprint affect anything else? Sprint work was not started on the date eg jan 1st , but the Sprint was created and start date was set as jan 1st. Work only commenced in eg jan 7 . Can I caller the start date without it affecting anything else?
