Can I get the field 'Sprint Goal' added in the JIRA Rest API?

[Nicole]

Hello, I am also trying to GET the Goal of a sprint. Is this already supported on Jira? 

[Martin]

The API functionality was added for JIRA Software Cloud in late October 2016. Examples were not added at that time but will be added soon to update the documentation at https://docs.atlassian.com/jira-software/REST/cloud/#agile/1.0/

The sprint goal can be added/updated as part of create, update and partial update for sprints.

POST /rest/agile/1.0/sprint/{sprintId}

{"goal":"example sprint goal"}

Kind regards,
Martin

Thanks Martin.

Thanks @Martin , that's valuable info, but it does not answer when that will be available to on-prem Jiras like server or datacenter.

Do you have info on the roadmap details for this specific matter?

PS: Sorry, please forget this; I just notice this is in Jira Server API already:

Where is the goal stored in JIRA?

[Reema Rao]

It appears after creating a sprint - we can define the Sprint Name and Sprint Goal. We were hoping to get this 'Sprint Goal' field.

Ah, that's been added to Cloud recently.  The REST API has not caught up with it yes, but I don't think it will be long.

Thanks Nic. That sounds great. Would you have an idea of the timeline on when we can expect to have this? Even a rough estimate would do.

No, I'm afraid I'm not an Atlassian with access to their development plans.
