How to delete sprint/iterations from Timelines?


Pravin Patil (104138133) | asked Feb 09 '17, 6:07 p.m.

In project area, under "overview" tab, "Timelines" section, i have:

Main Development [Project Timeline]
    Release 1.0
        Sprint 1
        Sprint 2
    Backlog

In my project we have 10+ teams who want to use agile planning. So they all create there sprints, and close it when done. But I am not seeing the option to delete sprint from the "Timeline". There is a button called "Delete" but it archives and doesn't remove the sprint from timeline. I can still see it there in "Timeline". 
The problem is after 6 months, there will be 100+ sprints and all visible under "Timeline" making it difficult to manage.
Is there a way to remove a sprint completely from Timeline?
Please let me know.

You can only archive an iteration but can not completely delete it. If you do not want to see the archived iteration, you can un-select the "Show Archived" icon in the Timeline section of Overview.
