Can a project summary be sent via email to management regarding past sprint work completed?

[Adam Bell]

Once the Sprint has been closed, is it possible to maybe create/send an email from JIRA to defined email addresses that would offer a summary of work completed in the most recent closed sprint, for more than one project.

Hi @Adam Bell and welcome to the community!

Yes.  You can use automation.  Something like this should work:

• TRIGGER: Sprint Completed
• ACTION: Lookup Issues

  • sprint IN ({{sprint}})

• ACTION: Send Email

  • {{sprint.name}} just completed.  Here is what was completed for the sprint:
    
    {{#lookupIssues}}
    * {{key}} - {{summary}}
    {{/}}

Thank you for the quick response! My apologies, but I am new to the Admin side of JIRA, and thus I do not know where to perform such action(s) as you described above. Please excuse my ignorance as I am learning the Admin side of JIRA.

Working through the JIRA admin UI, I have found the Automation, and am attempting the previous instruction.

Thanks

No problem - You can get to Automation from Project Settings >> Automation.  From there, you can create a new rule.  This guide can help you get started:

Thank you so much! I have set this up, and now I think I have a better understanding of the syntax and usage of this automation. Again, I greatly appreciate your quick response and help with this matter.
