how do i write a jql query to search bugs created in last 2 sprints

Hi @Sanket Salvi 

If you sprints had a definite time interval (e.g. 2 weeks) and you know this interval, then you can write your jql using the created date variable. Something like:

project = myProject AND issuetype = bug AND (created >= sprintStartedDate and created <= sprintEndDate)

Of course the above JQL will work only if the sprints have the same time interval. If they have a different time interval, then you can simply add an OR statement with the additional time interval.

Hope that helps!

Thanks Alex. Will try this. But I was looking for something which I dont have to change every sprint. so that then i can add a Rich filter pie chart to this jql query.

If your business need is e.g. to find all bugs from all closed sprints, then there is a solution for you.

project = DSP AND sprint in closedsprints() order by created DESC

If your need is to find all bugs from two specific sprints then you could use as well:

project = DSP AND Sprint in (2, 3) order by created DESC

Hi @Sanket Salvi 

Yes, and...to Alex's suggestions:

When you need something specific like this (the last 2 sprints) and you do not want to change the filters manually, you have a limited number of options:

• Investigate marketplace addon apps for JQL to see if they can dynamically detect the prior closed sprints
• Investigate marketplace addon apps for better dashboard/reporting gadgets
• Use automation for Jira rules to dynamically alter the filter when a sprint completes.  Please note you will need to learn about automation rules and calling the REST API to do this one.

Kind regards,
Bill

Nice thought @Bill Sheboy! I wasn't aware that you could do that, and I might give it a try!

Hey @Sanket Salvi ,

I don't think it's currently possible.

You can get the results manually by getting all the bugs in the previous 2 sprint and checkng the creation time.

What do you need the results for?

I want to sort the bugs resolved in last  2 sprints  to analyze the RCA (Universal)
