Automation: Notification When Original Estimate Field Modified

[Jason Smith]

This is a Jira Cloud question.

I want to create an automation that will comment on an issue and send an email whenever someone modifies the Original Estimate field if the issue is in certain statuses.

I know how to include the condition in the Automation to check the status field but I am not certain on how to do the validation that the Original Estimate field has been modified from the original value.

Any suggestions would be helpful.

Hi @Jason Smith and welcome to the community!

You would want your rule to trigger on Field Value Changed and set that to the Original Estimate field.

Yes, and...to Mark's answer:

If you need more information about the changed values, please take a look at the examples for {{changelog}} and {{fieldChange}} on this documentation page: https://support.atlassian.com/cloud-automation/docs/jira-smart-values-issues/

Kind regards,
