# GET /api/v2/sprints/{sprint}

Read a sprint

- MCP id: sprints.show
- Scope: api:read:project_management
- Permission: project_management::view_active_sprint
- Rate cost: 1 unit, read bucket.
- Cache-Control: private, no-store

Returns one sprint in the detail view.

The state is derived, not stored: `completed_at` non-`null` means completed, otherwise `is_active` `true` means active, otherwise upcoming. `work_items_count` is the number of items on the sprint and `links.work_items` is the URL that lists them. Reading additionally requires `project_management::manage_sprints`.

## Parameters
- sprint (integer, path): The Sprint's numeric id.
- view (string, optional): Which field set to render.
- meta (array of string, optional): Optional meta members to compute for this response.
- X-Request-Id (header, optional): A correlation id of your own. It is recorded in our logs next to the server's request id but never returned: the response header always carries the server's id. A value that does not match the pattern is discarded silently, never rejected.
- If-None-Match (header, optional): The ETag a read is conditional on. A match is answered 304 with no body.

## Response 200
- id (integer, required): Unique identifier.
- project_id (integer, required): The project this sprint belongs to. A sprint cannot be moved between projects, so this is accepted on create only.
- name (string ≤ 255, required): Sprint name as shown in plnnrly, e.g. `Sprint 14`.
- description (string or null, required, multiline): Free-text sprint goal. Plain text, not markup.
- start_date (date (YYYY-MM-DD) or null, required): Planned first day of the sprint. Independent of `started_at`: planning a date does not start the sprint.
- end_date (date (YYYY-MM-DD) or null, required): Planned last day of the sprint. Independent of `completed_at`.
- started_at (timestamp (YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ) or null, required, server-assigned): When the sprint was actually started. Written only by POST `sprints/{sprint}/actions/start`; `null` on an upcoming sprint.
- completed_at (timestamp (YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ) or null, required, server-assigned): When the sprint was actually completed. Written only by POST `sprints/{sprint}/actions/complete`; `null` until then. Non-`null` is what makes the derived state `completed`.
- is_active (boolean, required, server-assigned): Whether this is the project's running sprint. Set by actions/start and cleared by actions/complete, never by PATCH. At most one sprint per project is active at a time.
- order (integer, required, server-assigned): Display position within the project. Assigned on create as the last position in that project's sprint order, changed only by reordering in plnnrly, and not writable.
- work_items_count (integer ≥ 0, required): Number of work items currently on this sprint, resolved and unresolved alike.
- created_at (timestamp (YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ), required): Creation timestamp.
- updated_at (timestamp (YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ), required): Last-write timestamp; use for incremental sync.
- project (Ref or ProjectSummary, required): The project this sprint belongs to. Expanding it additionally requires the projects prefix's read grant and a token scope covering it.
- links (SprintLinks, required)
  - self (url, required): The canonical URI of this record.
  - work_items (url, required): Work items on this sprint.
