Filter Backlog View to only show specific sprints

chad chamberlain March 30, 2023

I have a jira project that has multiple scrum boards.  for one of the boards in the project

I need to only display in jira backlog view, sprints that begin with specific characters.

I've tried the following but doesn't seem to work

project = ### AND Sprint = "STRING" ORDER BY Rank ASC

when i go back to the backlog view in my jira board, i still see sprints that don't have that STRING..

Hi @chad chamberlain,

Welcome to Atlassian Community!

It is not possible to use partial data when you are searching on Sprint =, it will only take the full name of the sprint. You would need an app that extends JQL in order to do this, I know from experience that Scriptrunner/Enhanced Search has a function that allow you to search based on regex, but there other apps in the Marketplace that may be able to do this too.

Thanks @Mikael Sandberg 

Sounds like by using one oof these apps, i should be able to create a jql that that only returns sprints in the backlog view that match a specific string. Do I understand that correctly?

Correct, as long as they have a function that allows you to do a fuzzy search. Enhanced Search for example has the issueFieldMatch() function that allow you to do that.

Thanks for that @Mikael Sandberg will give that a shot
