How do you edit or set the target date for a project in Atlas?

Question

Hello!

I am trying out Atlas for tracking our product priorities for the upcoming quarter. On the first project, I synced it with a related Epic from Jira, and when it synced, it set the target date automatically.

For the rest of the projects, when I sync, it's not setting the target date.

How do I manually edit the target date on a project? Is there a permission thing that I'm missing?

It would be really helpful if you could set an initial target date on creation of the project - that initial target isn't a project update.

Hi Drew,

Thanks for the feedback - I'm not sure why it's not syncing with the project. I can tell you that to manually change the target date, you need to post an update for the project, with the rationale being that changes to a target warrants an explanation to followers.

Let me know if this works and then also updates the Due Date on the Epic.

Thanks,

Mark
