Agile JQL Functions

NextSprint

Finds issues that are planned for the next sprint. Provide a Jira board name or board ID as an argument.

Examples:

  • issue in nextSprint("Development Board") finds issues scheduled for the next sprint on the "Development Board".

  • issue in nextSprint(25) finds issues planned for the next sprint on the board with ID 25.

PreviousSprint

Finds issues that were part of the previous sprint. Provide a Jira board name or board ID as an argument.

Examples:

  • issue in previousSprint("QA Board") retrieves issues from the previous sprint on the "QA Board".

  • issue in previousSprint(30) finds issues from the previous sprint on the board with ID 30.

AddedToSprintAfterStart

Identifies issues that were added to a sprint after it began, useful for detecting scope creep.

Provide a Jira board name or board ID as the first argument.

Optionally, provide a sprint name or sprint ID as the second argument. By default, it uses the active sprint in the search.

Examples:

  • issue in addedToSprintAfterStart("Backend Team Board") finds issues added after the current sprint on the "Backend Team Board" started.

  • issue in addedToSprintAfterStart("Backend Team Board", "Sprint 12") finds issues added after "Sprint 12" started.

  • issue in addedToSprintAfterStart(15, 42) uses board ID 15 and sprint ID 42 to find issues added after sprint 42 started on board 15.
