Story Points is a number field, associated to the correct Project and screens - is also searchable.

But when I try to add it to the Plan - I cannot find it.

Any help is appreciated

Hi @hpatani,

After changing the estimation method in your plan to Story points (as mentioned by @Fernando Eugênio da Silva, Jira's system field Story Points should become available under Fields in your timeline view, as well as Progress (story points). No additional import should be necessary.

If the story points field is a custom field you created yourself, apart from Jira's system field, it may well be that importing that field is not supported. In that case, I would recommend switching to the system field instead, since it is embedded in a lot of standard functionality in Jira out of the box.

Hope this helps!

Thank you Fernando.

I was able to change the estimate to Story points - but I have a custom field calle dStory points on my jira project - I am unable to add that custom field to the plan view.
