Hi @Vimal G,

Smart values are case sensitive. I see that you are trying to set the Start date (with a capital 'S', but you are using small letters in your smart value. Also, you would normally reference the result of your Lookup Work Items action as {{lookupIssues.xxx}} and not lookupIssue

Try updating it to:

{{lookupIssues.Start date.min}}

Hope this helps!
