TFS Current Sprint URL

Question

Is there a URL that I can bookmark for my team's TFS Current Sprint task board? We have 2-week sprints so the URL changes every 2 weeks.

The default URL is of the form:

http://[Server]/tfs/[Project]/[Team]/_backlogs/TaskBoard/[SprintName]#_a=people

The [SprintName] part of the URL changes every sprint, thus it doesn't provide a stable URL. I'm wondering if there's some version of the URL that always points to the current sprint, i.e.:

http://[Server]/tfs/[Project]/[Team]/_backlogs/TaskBoard/CURRENT#_a=people

Just found the answer. If you remove the sprint name altogether, it redirects to the current sprint.

EDIT: Updated Oct. 2018 for Azure DevOps

For Azure DevOps, the following URL works:

New Azure DevOps URL format:

https://dev.azure.com/[Company]/[Project]/_sprints/backlog/[Team]

Old Azure DevOps (VSTS) URL format:

https://[Company].visualstudio.com/[Project]/_sprints/taskboard/[Team]/

Previously in TFS, the URL was:

http://[Server]/tfs/[Project]/[Team]/_backlogs/TaskBoard#_a=people

http://[Server]/tfs/[Project]/[Team]/_backlogs/Iteration for the current sprint backlog. – LeWoody Feb 12 '16 at 15:00

This approach works for VSTS as well (e.g., `https://[Tenant].visualstudio.com/[Project]/_backlogs/Iteration`), but it takes noticeably longer to load. – Lars Kemmann Oct 18 '16 at 15:02

I believe the VSTS (Now Azure Dev Ops) link is no longer working. Any updates on this? – tokyo0709 Oct 22 '18 at 16:41
URL in answer works, URL in comment does not work, in my Azure DevOps (VSTS). – JohnC Oct 25 '18 at 12:25

A slightly different URL worked for me in VSTS (now Azure DevOps): `https://[Company].visualstudio.com/[Project]/_sprints/taskboard/[Team]/` That was based on the text description of how to edit the URL (i.e. remove the current sprint path, leaving just the team reference) – ncoghlan Oct 29 '18 at 02:01

Thanks @ncoghlan; I've incorporated this into the answer. – Scott Wegner Oct 29 '18 at 16:37
In the context of Microsoft, this makes total sense. – Yatrix Dec 13 '18 at 13:09
Thank you!!! The new Azure DevOps Url worked for me! – Luis E. Vega Nov 08 '22 at 14:56
