How to delete a completed sprint

Savvas Demetriou

I started a sprint before we had completed estimations and added issues to sprint, which resulted in an incorrect burn down chart.

i created a new sprint, moved all the issues into it and finished the erroneous sprint.

i renamed the new sprint to previous sprint name.

all is good except in reporting I have two sprint 2’s.

how do I delete the original, incorrect one?

i have seen some articles that show an ellipses on the report page that allows this but it is missing from my sprint burn down report page

 

any help would be appreciated!

Hi @Savvas Demetriou 

This will depend if your project is Classic or Next-Gen.

-------------

Classic:

You'll need the "Manage Sprints" project permission to perform this action.

If the board has more than one project, you'll need this permission for each project present on the board.

Then, to delete a completed sprint:

  1. Go to the Board.
  2. On the left-hand side, select Reports - choose the Sprint Report
  3. Select the completed sprint from drop-down field on the left-hand side (just above the burn-down)
  4. Next, select the 3-dots icon on the right-hand side, just above the burn-down graph - not the one in the upper-right corner
  5. Select "Delete Sprint" from this menu

See visuals for this approach on this page

-------------

Next-Gen:

It's not possible to do this in Next-Gen yet.

Hi @Savvas Demetriou 

Then this isn't possible yet, I'm afraid.

For future reference, you can edit/delete an active sprint in Next-Gen:

  1. Go to the Backlog view
  2. Click the breadcrumbs (3-dots icon) in the top-right of the sprint box (next to "Complete Sprint")
  3. Select Edit or Delete Sprint
