Assign Sprint Items

Manage task assignments within sprints, balance workloads, and coordinate team commitments.

Where to Go & How to Go

1. Assigning Sprint Tasks/Issues to Developers

• Where to Go: Open the sprint details page at Manage → Sprint → [Sprint Name] (or /workspace/sprint/[sprintName]).
• How to Go:
  1. In the sprint's item tables (Tasks or Issues tabs), click on any row to open the details side sheet.
  2. Locate the Assignees section and check/uncheck the team members responsible for this item.
  3. The sprint stats page will immediately update its Assignees listing to reflect the developers active on the sprint.

2. Reviewing Sprint commitments & Balances

• Where to Go: Navigate to the Project Workspace Dashboard (/workspace).
• How to Go:
  1. Open the Advanced Charts tab.
  2. Locate the Member Workload Card, which tracks the volume of active tasks and issues currently assigned to each team member, grouped by priority (High, Medium, Low).
  3. If a team member is overloaded, navigate to the active task list or sprint details, open the task, and modify the assignees to assign work to others.

Sprint Allocation Guidelines

To maintain healthy sprint metrics and high team velocity:

1. Ensure tasks are fully assigned and estimated before starting the sprint.
2. Monitor member workloads in the workspace Advanced Charts to prevent developer burnout.
3. If a task becomes blocked during the sprint, escalate it using Mark as Issue to alert the team and automatically carry over assignees.
