I want to count the number of sprints an issue has been assigned to

Jerred Cook November 14, 2023

I am interested in building a Structure that shows how many sprints an issue has been assigned to.  (closed or open)

 

I see that Sprint is supposed to be a list but I cannot figure out how to count the number of sprints that each issue has been assigned to. 

 

This worked:  sprint.size()

If you export issues of interest (to Excel CSV) from a query/filter (like  "...AND resolutiondate >= 2024-12-31 AND resolution is not Empty..."), and then you open Excel to view the data, you will see that in the export, there will be X columns called "Sprint" where X is the number of sprints of the "most-sprinted" issue in the export.

 

So then, simply use a "=CountA(range)" formula in a new column in every row of the data, and THAT cell will show the number-of-sprints for each row (ie. each issue in the export), where "range" is the cell references for the "sprint" column (like 5 sprints might be for your data) "=COUNTA(F2:H2)" in row 2, and "=COUNTA(F3:H3)" in row 3, etc.

 

Then I use the Excel free Analysis Pak add-in to quickly get Histogram and other information.... You can also correlate to "Points" to help struggling teams see what they are (or are not) doing....

Sounds like you are using Jira Automation?

And you figured it out?

For those playing along at home, the documentation is here:
