Automation : timeSpent = timeestimate when subtask is Done

Question

Hi,

I would like to implement an automation where when a subtask is done, the timeSpent take all the time remaining from this subtask.

I have tried with this and it worked :

...

"add": {
"timeSpent" : "{{timeestimate.divide(60)}}m"
}..

The pbm is when the timeestimate is with 2 decimals, i have an error ... (invalid datetime)

ie : 0.13d (for 1hour)

I think that i missed a time conversion or others .. Any ideas ?

Thanks for your help

You may want to submit a ticket to Atlassian support to learn if this is a known issue, perhaps with a work-around: https://support.atlassian.com/contact/#/

...

"add": {
"timeSpent" : "{{issue.timetracking.remainingestimate}}d"
}..

I have got the same problem using this. It doesn't worked for example with 0.13d (for 1hour) but it worked for example with 1d or 2d.

The error is : Invalid Duration entered (worklog_timeLogged))

It seems to have a conversion problem

Given that, would it be better to use {{issue.timetracking.remainingestimate}} when subtracting all the remaining time?
