How to review changes for sprint in Jira

What changes were made during the sprint? How often were tasks transitioned or updated?

Tracking changes in your Jira sprints is crucial for understanding team progress and identifying areas for improvement. With the Issue History for Jira app, you can easily review the complete history of sprint activities, including task updates, transitions, and changes to key fields.

Here, we will walk you through how to use Issue History to monitor your sprint history effectively.

1. Select the sprint you need. Also, you can set additional filters such as “Updated by” and date range.

2. Open the “Column manager” and select the fields you want to include in your report. It can be any issue field you have configured in your projects.

2. You can also select one or a few fields only to show in the report.
