Automation for Jira change Updated date fields based on other issue date/time custom field

Question

Hi,

I want edit updated date based on issue date/time custom field. I write this smart value:

{

"fields": {

"updated" : "{{issue.customfield_10630.jiraDateTime}}"

}

This rule does not work. Meanwhile, following rule does work

{

"fields": {

"customfield_10630" : "{{issue.updated.jiraDateTime}}"

}

What is wrong?

Regards

I recommend you use another field.The update field is something you don't want to mess with.  This could be why you get the error messages.

Yes, I'm trying change the updated(system field). Can i update it with date/time custom field?

@GG

Are you trying to change the updated system date field? If you are, not sure why you would do that, but maybe you are not allowed.  What's the error message.
