Copy data from time tracking field to custom field using automation

Filip Novák_e1npvo

Hello all, 

I need to solve an issue, where we are using the time tracking in Jira and I need to copy the data from the "Original estimation" filed to my custom field with every change and with every new creation. 

My custom field has to be the number.

I used the Jira automation, but Jira is giving me information, that Jira was not able to convert the field value into the number.

Here is the formula I am trying to use: 

{
"fields": {
"Sledování času [TEST2]": "{{timetracking.originalEstimate}}"
}
}

Thank you for any help.

Hi @Filip Novák

Welcome to the Atlassian community!

Can you try replacing 'Sledování času [TEST2]' with the custom field id like 'customfield_xxxxx'?

Also, can you provide the screenshot of how you have setup the automation rule and what is the actual error if any?

Thanks,
Vamsi
