Details:

In Jira Software Cloud, the sprint reports (e.g. Sprint Report / Sprint Retrospective) currently show who completed the sprint, but do not show who started it.

For example, on a typical sprint retrospective report such as:
https://example.atlassian.net/jira/software/c/projects/ABC/boards/1/reports/sprint-retrospective?sprint=123
you can see who completed the sprint, but there is no equivalent “Started by” field.

Request:

Please add the name of the user who started the sprint to the sprint reports, in the same way Jira shows the user who completed the sprint. Ideally:

• Display a “Started by <user> on <date/time>” field near the sprint dates, and

• Keep it consistent across all sprint-related reports (Sprint Report, Sprint Retrospective, etc.).

Why this matters:

• Helps teams understand who initiated a sprint when reviewing history and running retros.

• Makes it easier to audit and correct mistakes (e.g., sprint started too early or on the wrong board).

• Keeps the UX consistent: we already see who completed the sprint; seeing who started it is a logical complement.

Thank you for considering this improvement.
