Can someone please give me advice on how to use Story points (comparing with how much time it takes to finish the story)? and how to make time estimation for the other types of tickets like Task, Bugs and Subtasks!

Hi @Driton Sinani 

Welcome to the Community!!

Story Points are used for estimating your Epics and Stories 

Here's a guide from Atlassian on how to use Story Points

https://www.atlassian.com/agile/project-management/estimation

Tasks, Bugs, and Sub-tasks are tracked via time tracking

If you need more insights on how team is being assigned with work

Get the add-on Tempo timesheets.

Thanks,
Pramodh
