Is it possible to set due date field to a custom one?

Question

Hello, I am using the Jira integration in Opsgenie (create a Jira issue when alert is created) and would like to change the due date field to be today + 7 days. Is this possible?

The only possible way I have found so far is to set the due date via the calendar and select the date (outgoing automation rules - create jira issue - edit issue creation rule - edit issue fields).

Any information is highly appreciated.

Thanks for your quick reply!

It is not possible to inject the smart value directly into the field {{now.plusDays(14)}}.
That would have been very convenient and "easy".

Do you mean to use automation rules to edit the issue in Jira itself and not in the Opsgenie Jira integration?

Hi @Eliwan.Kook

You can use automation rules to modify due date by using smart values.
