Restore Sprints | Sprint Organizer Documentation

Restore Sprints documentation.

Sprint Organizer allows deleted sprints to be restored directly from the Sprints page.

Restoring a sprint creates a new Jira sprint based on the metadata preserved by Deleted Sprint Tracking. The restored sprint receives a new sprint ID, but its original configuration can be recreated.

Before restoring the sprint, you can review and modify its configuration.

Restoring a Sprint

To restore a deleted sprint, find it on the Sprints page and select the Restore action.

Sprint Organizer pre-fills the restore form using the information stored for the deleted sprint, including:

These values can be changed before the new sprint is created.

This allows you to either recreate the sprint as closely as possible to the original or adjust its configuration when necessary.

After confirming the form, Sprint Organizer creates a new sprint in Jira.

The restored sprint is a new Jira sprint and therefore receives a new sprint ID. The original deleted sprint and its ID cannot be recreated.

Restoring Issues

Creating a new sprint does not automatically move issues from the original sprint into the restored sprint.

After the sprint has been successfully created, Sprint Organizer checks whether it has information about issues that previously belonged to the original sprint.

If such issues are available, they are displayed in the Restore Sprint dialog and can be added to the newly created sprint.

The list provides information about the previously associated issues, including their key, type, summary, status, space, and the date when they were removed from the original sprint.

Issue Selection

Sprint Organizer automatically selects issues that were removed from the original sprint within the last 10 minutes before its deletion.

This helps restore the sprint's most recent issue composition while reducing the risk of automatically selecting issues that had intentionally been moved out of the sprint earlier.

Before adding issues to the restored sprint, you can:

Issues are added only after selecting Add Issues.

You can also close the dialog without adding any issues.

Important: Do not close the Restore Sprint dialog while issues are being added. Wait until the operation is complete to ensure all selected issues are successfully added to the restored sprint.

Important Considerations

Restoring a sprint does not restore the original Jira entity.

Instead, Sprint Organizer uses the historical information it has preserved to create a new sprint with the same or modified configuration.
