How to get number of deployments per sprint

[sravani.kambhampati]

I am looking for a way to get how many deployments happened at end of the sprint In Jira board.  Jira is integrated into bitbucket and for CI/CD we are using bitbucket pipelines.

Our sprint closes every 2 weeks. So either Monday or Tuesday morning everyone closes their sprint we need a value to know on all boards.

Do we have any restful Jira API's to hit and get the data. 

Please point me in the right direction to get it working.

Hello @sravani.kambhampati ,

I don't use Bitbucket pipelines myself, however, not knowing much about your requirements, I can suggest the following:

1. Search for all the issues belonging to the desired Sprint, having at least a successful deployment by using the following JQL (replace SPRINT+NAME with the name of the sprint, you can also use the search REST API endpoint to run this search if it needs to be done from an external app): 

   Sprint = "SPRINT+NAME" AND deploymentState ~ "successful" 

2. If you need to get the details, then you can try to use one of the methods discussed in below thread:
   • How to retrieve deployments on a Jira issue using REST API 

Another option for point #2 would be to try to use one of the below internal endpoints  that are not officially supported and documented (so I am not sure they also return the deployment information), but they work so far (replace ISSUE_ID with the issue-ID, not the issue key):

•  https://NAME.atlassian.net/rest/dev-status/latest/issue/summary?issueId=ISSUE_ID
• https://NAME.atlassian.net/rest/dev-status/latest/issue/details?issueId=ISSUE_ID

So, in this latter case you should write a script that:

1. Calls the search REST API endpoint (GET or POST) to get all the issues belonging to the sprint having deployment information (/rest/api/3/search): 
   • Search for issues using JQL (GET)
   • Search for issues using JQL (POST)
2. For each issue returned by the search, gets the issue-id by calling the Get issue endpoint (/rest/api/3/issue/ISSUE-KEY)
3.  For each issue-id collected in above steps, calls /rest/dev-status/latest/issue/summary?issueId=ISSUE_ID in order to get the deployment related information.

For further details, please see:

• Advanced search reference - JQL developer status
• Jira Cloud REST API reference
• Jira Software Cloud REST API reference

I hope this helps.

Cheers,
Dario

Also, in order to provide more details about the dev-status internal REST API endpoints (from How to retrieve deployments on a Jira issue using REST API):

We have the below feature request open in our system since couple of years in order to have a public REST API endpoint to get the information displayed in the development panel:

• [JSWCLOUD-16901] Provide a public REST API endpoint to get development info associated with an issue

As you can see the provided endpoints are documented as the workaround for this feature request that got around 50 votes so far. Therefore, we can safely assume that the provided endpoints will keep on working for still some time, or they will be replaced by official ones.

 You may want to vote and watch the above feature request so that you will get notified in case of any update. The  feature will be addressed according to the Implementation of New Features Policy.
