Hide Sprints from SCRUM Board

We have two development teams that work on two products but share Issues from a common project. So we have three JIRA projects (something like projA, projB and sharedComponent).

The board filters then look like:

project = projA OR project = sharedComponent

Now, both boards show the other project's Sprints - as can be expected, since issues from sharedComponent would be visible in both boards. This is not always desirable.

* Is it possible to hide the display of the other's project sprints from the planning board?

BTW, I tried putting the project name in the sprint and filtering like 'project = projA OR (project = sharedComponent AND NOT Sprint ~ "projB"), but the ~-operator does not work for the sprint field.

The way we solved this is by using labels.

We maintain a separate backlog for the shared component. During sprint planning or whenever it becomes clear which team will work on a story, we add a label to it.

The filter query for project A then looks similar to this:

project = projA OR (project = sharedComponent AND labels = PROJA) ORDER BY Rank ASC

(btw the check "labels = PROJA" also works when multiple labels are present)

Hi @Philip Hansen - did you ever solve this? I've got exactly the same issue right now!

Did you solve this? I want to have two Boards for two separate teams. And I want only their personal Sprints to show at their boards... Items are easy to hide with filters, but how to hide boards???
