# Sprint configuration

When you [configure Jira issue ownership mappings](https://github.com/swarmia/knowledge-base/blob/main/getting-started/configuration/broken-reference/README.md), Swarmia will automatically select a board that has Sprints and enable sprint activity tracking.

If your board is not automatically selected or you need to change the board for your team, you can go to [Team issue settings](https://app.swarmia.com/settings/team/issues), click "Track sprint activity" and select the correct Jira board for your team.

After configuring the Sprint, you can now go to [Swarmia sprints](https://app.swarmia.com/sprints) and read further at:

* [Sprints](/features/focus/sprints.md)
  {% endhint %}

#### Private Jira boards

If your Jira board is private, Swarmia cannot access sprint data from it. Private boards will be indicated with a lock icon (🔒) in the board selector.

To use a private board with Swarmia change the board's permissions in Jira to allow organization-wide access.

### Troubleshooting

If you can't find the board in the selection list, make sure your Jira board filter has organization-wide permissions, allowing the Swarmia app to sync your board.

Please reach out to us at <hello@swarmia.com> if you experience any issues with the sprint configuration.
