Hi team,

We’re looking to set the sprint field when an issue is first synced to the current sprint. This isn’t syncing the sprints between the projects, just setting a value in the newly created issue. I couldn’t find a way to do that in the documentation, is it possible?

It looks like that this is supported by default in Jira Server - check the link
