Can a deleted sprint be recovered?

[tyrone kimble]

Team member inadvertently deleted a sprint.  Can it be recovered?

Thanks in advance....

Hi @tyrone kimble unfortunately no, it is not possible to restore a deleted sprint in Jira, but what you can do is recreate the Sprint by pulling the existing issues that were part of that sprint back into the new sprint. The issues that were part of your deleted sprint should be in your backlog. 

If this answered your question, please accept my answer as it it helps me.

You can also run a query to identify the issues that were part of the deleted sprint by doing the below: 

- Run a JQL which pulls any issue updated by the user who deleted the sprint.
Sample: project = PROJECT AND issuekey in updatedBy("USER", -1d)

- Bulk change these issues into the new sprint

The issues that are pulled up using the query might not be the correct ones, so check for any unintentional issues before you do the bulk change.

Thanks again.  Reviewed and implemented suggested approach with user and worked out well.

hello, just happened the same to me.
How can i find my backlog?!

Unfortunately this doesn't give me any results even though the query is correct and the user as well who accidentally deleted the sprint.

@Summer Hogan Thanks for sharing the query, it was exactly what I needed to quickly identify issues changed by a user who accidentally deleted a sprint shared by several teams. Appreciate your help!
