How to Find a Sprint Number in Jira

Use this interactive demo to learn how to locate a sprint number in your Jira backlog.

Quick summary

The sprint number in Jira is displayed directly beside the sprint name in the Backlog view of your scrum board. Navigating to the Backlog section is the fastest way to identify any sprint's number without leaving your project.


Steps

  1. In your Jira scrum board, head over to the top menu bar and click 'Backlog'.
  2. After that, find the specific sprint you want to check in the backlog list.
  3. From there, the number beside its name is considered the sprint number.

📌 Why this matters

Knowing how to quickly locate a sprint number in Jira is essential for agile teams that reference sprints in reports, issue filters, and API queries. Jira's Backlog view surfaces the sprint number directly beside the sprint name, eliminating guesswork and saving time during sprint planning or retrospectives. This matters because accurate sprint identification improves traceability, reporting consistency, and cross-team communication in scrum workflows.
