Sprint Burnup cards (Legacy)

A Burnup card is a Sprint card available in our Dashboard feature.

Sprint card feature availability and limits vary by plan and user role. Learn more

Our new Sprint Burnup cards offer improved accuracy and performance! Existing Sprint cards and legacy Burndown cards are still available.

Burnup cards allow you to see data from as early as August 2020.

Custom Sprint Durations cannot be used with legacy Sprint Dashboard cards. If you need to use Custom Sprint Durations with Sprint reporting cards, switch to our new Sprint Velocity, Burnup, and Burndown cards.

Burnup cards

This card lets you create a burnup chart, which is a visual representation of your project’s progress that highlights:

  • Work you’ve completed

  • Total project work

It’s an easy way for Agile project managers to track what’s been completed against their total scope of work.

Screenshot of a Burnup Card.

Y-axis: The grey line represents the total amount of work to do, reflected using Sprint Points on y-axis.

X-axis: The green line represents the total work that has been completed over time (shown on the x-axis).

Once all the work is done, the green line will intersect the grey line, signaling the end of the project.

If you add tasks to your project or Sprint, you will see an increase in the grey line representing total work to be done.
