Jira Automation Smart value sprint dates and assign dates.

[Marina botica]

Hello everyone,

Can some one help me on this.

Is it possible to get a future sprints start and end date and then edit fields in the issues that were assigned to that sprint?

Sprint example

Name: "Sprint A (Mar10 - Mar 21)"

Sprint start and end date: input date in fields

When sprint is created

Scenario 1: start date

IF {{sprint.name}} contains regex [sprint]

AND find the issues that belong in that sprint

Edit the issue field "start date" with that Sprint start date

Scenario 2: end date

IF {{sprint.name}} contains regex [sprint]

AND find the issues that belong in that sprint

Edit the issue field "end date" with that Sprint end date

Hello @Marina botica ,

Welcome to the Community. 

I am a bit unclear on your use case...when a sprint is created it has no issues assigned to it, so the Sprint Created trigger could not be used as you note.

Perhaps an alternative would be a rule triggered on Sprint Started...as sprint planning has probably occurred by that point and so the issues could be updated:

• trigger: sprint started
• branch: on JQL to find the assigned issues with sprint IN {{sprint.id}}
  • action: edit issue to set Start Date to {{sprint.startDate}} and Due Date to {{sprint.endDate}}  

I assumed that you meant Due Date rather than End Date.  If you have a custom field named End Date plus adjust accordingly.  Thanks!

Kind regards,

Satya
