Is there a way to set automation where a notification is sent to me when a sprint is changed?

[Maggie Spitchka]

I'd like to be notified when an issue/story moves from one sprint to another - not sure if this is possible?

[Mikael Sandberg · Accepted solution]

Yes, it is possible. You would trigger the automation on field value changed and then use the send email component to send the notification.

Hi @Maggie Spitchka 

Adding to Mikael's answer...When do you want to know this information?  For example:

1. when something is added to an in-progress sprint
2. when something is removed from an in-progress sprint
3. when something is added to a future sprint
4. when something is removed from a future sprint

If you want all of the above, try what Mikael suggests.  If you want something more specific you would need more conditions in an automation rule.

Kind regards,
Bill

I think I'll start with it on for all. Is there a way to add in the values that it changed FROM and TO? 

[Bill Sheboy]

Yes, and...it appears the defect with the changelog for sprints is addressed, so here are a couple of examples, for a rule triggered on a change to the sprint field:

before: {{#changelog.sprint}}{{fromString}}{{/}}

after: {{#changelog.sprint}}{{toString}}{{/}}

Thank you both - I'll try that out!

On a similar but semi unrelated note, is there a way to set up an automation email notification flag when an issue/story is a certain status (ex Done) and then moves to any other status?

[Trudy Claspill]

Yes.

Use the Issue Transitioned trigger. You can specify the From Statuses and To Statuses, then add an action to send an email.
