Automation for Summing up Story Points of Linked Issues

Hello!

I am fairly new to using the Automation function with Jira. I am wanting to take "Ideas" from my Discovery Board and sum up all the total Story Points of the Linked Issues from the various teams involved in each "Idea".

I am struggling to get this to work as I want this to update the Story Points of my Idea when the Task is linked back to my Idea with story points already assigned. 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!

Hi, you should be able to sum up story points by configuring the delivery progress based on that:

@Tanguy Crusson Is there a way to auto-populate the Points total in a field within Jira? Right now, all I can do is hover over to see it, but want to use the value for metrics and insight. Thanks.
