      Hi all,

      Thank you for your feedback on this suggestion.

      Your insights have been invaluable in helping us understand the issue better and prioritize. We're excited to announce that we are shipping the ability to rename closed sprints in JIRA Software 7.5!
      Now, together with an ability to delete opened and closed sprints (also released in JIRA Software 7.5), you will have a full flexibility in cleaning up your data and adjusting the historical data to your needs.

      These changes are also possible via the REST APIs. Read more here (under REST API changes section).

      JIRA Software 7.5 is now available to download so you can start planning your upgrade straight away!
      Learn more in our release notes.

      Cheers,
      Jakub Lazinski

      In previous versions of JIRA Agile I was able to rename closed sprint with incorrect name/number via JIRA REST API according to this guide:
      https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRAKB/How+to+rename+a+closed+Sprint+in+JIRA+Software

      With a recent version of JIRA Agile I'm getting "Cannot update closed sprint" error message.

      I'd like to keep the ability to update closed sprint via REST API at least in case an urgent change is needed.

      Request
      {
    "name": "VPN_91",
    "startDate": "26/Oct/15 6:47 PM",
    "endDate": "05/Nov/15 6:47 PM"
}
      Response
      {
  "errorMessages": [
    "Cannot update closed sprint"
  ],
  "errors": {}
}

            Agree that this would be really handy. Especially when your current project is a legacy one and you want to streamline everything or simplify things. Previous managers could've done a mess with sprint naming and it is really sad you can't just rename them...

            EDIT: just saw there's a ticket for Cloud version and that it is still open. Will follow that one then.

            +1 on Sergii's comment: this would be very useful in Jira Cloud

            It's been two months since the last question, so I am hoping it is OK to ask again.
            Is this feature available in JIRA Cloud? If not, do you have any ETA? I am still getting the "Cannot update closed sprint" error.

            Thanks

            Yeah, it's very frustrating in Cloud that you cannot rename a running/closed sprint.

            Can we expect this in JIRA Cloud too ?

            Not being able to change the sprint name after it is closed is ridiculous. We are trying to change our naming convention and such a basic feature would be helpful.

            Hello, any solutions regarding these.

            I also need to rename older sprints on cloud.
