Fill the orignal estimation time for tasks and sub tasks

[Umar Maroof]

I have a scenario 

I want to create an epic in that epic I create some tasks automatically and name them 

tasks 1

task 2 

Now I want to automatically fill the original estimation for these tasks so nobody can change that 

for example when task 1 created the original estimation for that task will be 5h (automatically filled)

task 2 created original estimation will be 3h(automatically filled)

so assign user can only put the hours spend on that tasks 

I dont know how can I achived this.

I am using jira cloud

You can use Automation to accomplish this with one exception. You can’t prevent someone from editing the OE at least not natively. Below is a concept on the rule but I would need more details to get closer. You could actually create a manual rule to create your epic and tasks if desired. 

trigger - issue created

condition - issue type equals Task

condition - epic link equals xxxx or epic link is not empty

action - edit issue , original estimate equals xxx
