Add the Original Estimate to an automation

Milagrosa Puig

I tried to add the original estimate to the tasks I want to create automatically in Jira:

What I do:
Then --> Create a new -- task:

I go to the configuration section: "Choose fields to set"...and add "Original Estimate". I go to that field and add, for example, 2h. I click on update and Run Rule to test the automation:

and when I go to see the created task, it creates it, with its title, description and so on, but it does NOT add the original estimate of 2h, instead, 0m appears:

That I have to do?
Thank you!!

Hi @Milagrosa Puig

For a question like this, please post an image of your complete automation rule, images of any relevant actions / conditions / branches, an image of the audit log details showing the rule execution, and explain what is not working as expected. Those will provide context for the community to offer ideas. Thanks!

Kind regards,
Bill

I would also love to know how to get this working if there is anyone to answer this that would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the screen images.

In your rule's Create Issue action, you have selected the Original Estimate field from the drop-down list and tried to set the field with advanced edit with JSON. If you review the audit log details when trying to run the rule you should see an error.

Only one of those edit types can be done at a time, so please try removing one of them and re-test.

Hi Bill! Thanks for answering.
I deleted the code that I wrote in the field with advanced edit with JSON, and filled in only the Original Estimate field, and nothing, it still doesn't work for me I get the original estimate at 0m when I launch the rule.
