How do we show the sprint goal on the Scrum Board after October update?

[Catherine Ojok]

Since October 16th with the new layout we can't see the Sprint Goal at the top of the sprint anymore. Is it possible to re-enable this somehow?

Hi @Catherine Ojok 

To which October update are you referring?  I do not see any notes about sprint goal changes in the release blog information: https://confluence.atlassian.com/cloud/blog

When I just tried showing the sprint goal for company-managed and team-managed project, scrum boards they worked as expected.

Please post an image showing what you are observing, with the goal configured and the board  (or backlog) not showing the goal.  Thanks!

Kind regards,
Bill

It seems like they have meant to have moved here but probably it doesn't work as we've 2 concurrent sprints on this board (previously when we filtered by sprint the goal would show)

I'd like to echo this, the sprint goal (and name) should be front and centre, not hidden behind a button.

[Marco Rosin]

Echo the sentiments of others here that the sprint goal should be front of centre however with the new navigation it is not showing anymore in the Active Sprint view which is very frustrating

I find this a bit of a miss.  Why call it a scrum board and then do not showcase the sprint goal.    This removes visibility from the team and its stakeholders on why the sprint is valuable and when its ending.
