Deleting a whole sprint with active /unassigned issues

Mijail Alcantara February 26, 2025

Hello 

Would appreciate very much your support on this:

I am trying to delete the entirety of a sprint that is not required anymore, is there a quick way to delete the whole without going issue per issue? there are still active and unassigned issues.

thank you

Greetings @Mijail Alcantara

Have you tried to perform a JQL search of all the tickets belonging to the sprint you want to delete, in order to delete them in bulk?

Allow me to give you a personal opinion. It is advisable to archive instead of delete. If you delete, and for whatever reason, at some later time you require an issue that was in the sprint tickets, there is no turning back.

I hope to be of help.

Greetings, Mariano.

Hi @Mijail Alcantara and welcome to the Community!

If you have manage sprint permissions, from the board backlog view click the ... button next to the sprint and select Delete Sprint.

It works pretty much in the same way in company managed and team managed projects / boards.

Hope this helps!

Unfortunately I have no "delete sprint" option even though my profile is set as Admin, will have to re-revise rights, thanks so much!
