How to Get Sprint Velocity Data via JIRA REST API?

[John Consorti]

Hi,

I am looking for a way to obtain velocity data via JIRA server REST API.  I have been unable to find a way to do this and was hoping someone might have some insight on this?  I am basically looking to pull the data from the velocity report page, but for all past sprints.  When I do a REST call for all issues within a sprint, I am only returned the current data, however this is not what I'm looking for.  Any help or advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Hi @John Consorti 

According to https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JSWSERVER-12877 , the documentation is not full. So :

JIRA Agile REST API Reference does not contain any info about how to query Agile reports e.g. Velocity or Burndown.

However, there are available endpoints to achieve this, e.g.:

• for Velocity:

  /rest/greenhopper/1.0/rapid/charts/velocity?rapidViewId=<board_ID>

Hope it helps !

Thanks for this. This works.

This only gives data for the last 7 sprints. Any ideas on how to get beyond those sprints ?
