Hi, I wish to automate the time estimation field based on the duration between the start and end times of a task.

For example, if a task is scheduled from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM today, I would like the time estimation to be automatically updated to 2 hours.

Is there a way to do this with existing power-ups and automation ?

 

 

I appreciate any suggestions and comments. Thanks!

Hello @Jeewon Lee 

If i understand correctly , in your issue, you have 2 custom field date time picker "Start time" and "End time" ?
If yes, you can using the func {{[date1].diff([date2]).[unit]} in the automation

For exemple

Hope this can help you :)
