Cycles & Sprints
Time-boxed iterations with a start and end date.
Why cycles
A cycle is a container for a block of time — usually one or two weeks. Tasks scheduled into a cycle should be realistic to finish by the end date. The cycle is where retros happen.
Fields
- Start date — when the cycle begins
- End date — when it closes
- Status — upcoming / active / completed
Planning a sprint
Create the cycle, then drag tasks into it by setting cycleId on each task. The Cycles page shows a gantt view out of the box so the team can see overlaps at a glance.
Retros
When a cycle completes, move it to completed and use the embedded doc area to capture what went well, what didn't, and what to change next cycle. Based doesn't mandate a format — you own the template.
A cycle is just a specialization of a project. You can nest cycles under an initiative to track which sprints shipped which goal.
