what is the syntax for {{now.diff(issue.customfield_10230).days}

[Emilia KASPRZYK]

Hello,

i have two fields calculated:

1. {{now.diff(issue.duedate).days}} - this one works perfectly
2. {{now.diff(issue.customfield_10230).days}} - doesn't work. How do I improve this to make it work? The name of the field is "Delay to Base Schedule", Perhaps I should use a name instead of a number? If so, what is the syntax for a name consisting of multiple words?

Help me please :).

Kind regards

Hi @Emilia KASPRZYK 

Have you confirmed it has a value for the issue, with the audit log?

What is the type of your custom field, customfield_10230?  Please note, some fields which Jira indicates are date (or date/time) fields are actually text when they reach an automation rule.  For those cases, toDate must be added for a conversion, like this:

{{now.diff(issue.some field.toDate).days}}

Kind regards,
Bill

hi

this is Date filed.

What to put exactly to "some filed" ? {{now.diff(issue.some field).days}}
if my custom field is: CustomFieldId=10230 or Delay to Base Schedule
