Change Status of tasks in a sprint

[Akshay Patel]

Hello,

I would like to have an automated function that changes the statuses of tasks in a sprint from "Ready to Start" to "To Do". This function will fire when the sprint starts. 

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

What's the use case here? If you're just trying to find out which issues are in an active sprint versus not in an active sprint, you can determine this using JQL queries without having to have two separate statuses like "Ready to Start" and " To Do."

Example queries might be:

Sprint in openSprints()

Sprint in futureSprints()

Sprint in closedSprints() 

This would keep your workflow simpler, and I believe it would achieve the same purpose.
