Sum Task Story Points Split from Story

Evan Turner_wshqo6

Using Jira Automation, I would like to sum Story Points on all Tasks linked to a Story with link type = "split to", then update the Story Points on the Story with that summed total. I cant seem to get a smart value to work. Ive tried variations for example {{issue.task.Story Points.sum}} but all fail to update the Story.

Here is my automation 

When: Value changes for

- Story Points

Issue Type equals

- Task

For: Linked issues (Branch)

-Types: split from

If: Linked issues present

-Types: split to

Then: Edit issue fields

- Story Points (smart value - {{issue.task.Story Points.sum}} )

Hi @Evan Turner 

This should work...

• Trigger: Field Value Changed
  • Field to Monitor = Story Points
• Condition: Issue Fields Condition
  • Field = Issue Type
  • Condition = equals
  • Value = Task
• Condition: Related Issues Condition
  • Related Issues = Linked Issues
  • Link Types = split from
  • Condition = Are present
• Action: Lookup Issues
  • JQL - issue in linkedIssues("{{triggerIssue.key}}","split from")
• Action: Create Variable
  • Name = storyKey
  • Smart Value = {{lookupIssues.first.key}}
• Action: Re-fetch Issue Data
• Action: Lookup Issues
  • JQL - issue in linkedIssues("{{storyKey}}","split to")
• Branch: Related Issues
  • Type = Linked Issues
  • Link Types = split from
    • Action: Edit Issue
      • Field = Story Points
        • Value = {{lookupIssues.Story Points.sum|0}}

A few notes...

• I believe I have the link types the right way around - Stories are split to Tasks, Tasks are split from Stories?
• To do the required lookup (i.e all the Story's split to Tasks), we had to an initial lookup to find a single Story Key - this rule does assume there's only ever 1 Story

Let us know if this works for you!
