Why the sum of story points = 0 ?

Aurélie Pilette_1tqqnx

Hello,

I have an epic with stories linked

I would like that when the story points is modified, there is the sum on the epic.

I create an atuomation rule like

But when I change the story points of stories, the sum is 0. So what is wrong on my automation rule ?

Thanks a lot for your help

Hi @Aurélie Pilette , your automation isn't correct. There are quite a few post in the community on this very topic and I encourage you to look at them. Here are a couple to get you started.

Hi Aurélie - Stories are not "sub-tasks" of Epics. They are just children.

Take a look at this article: https://community.atlassian.com/forums/Jira-articles/How-Can-I-Sum-Up-Multiple-Issues-into-a-Parent-Number-Field/ba-p/2882712

I don't find the answer to my problem on the link given. I try to change by {{lookupIssues.Story points.sum|0}} but it doesn't work

The link doesn't work. I try to change the rule by {{lookupIssues.Story points.sum|0}} but it doesn't work

Hi @Aurélie Pilette

First, what project type are you using: company-managed or team-managed? That impacts which field and smart value to use: Story points or Story point estimate, respectively.

Next, as described in that linked article, you must first use the Lookup Work Items action in the rule to use the {{lookupIssues}} smart value. Did you do that?

If that still does not help, please post the following for more context:

an image of your complete, updated rule, in one single image for continuity
an image of the audit log details showing your rule execution

Kind regards,
Bill

Hello,

it will be esaier if you say that a lookup is mandatory. I find it by the IA. I add the lookup and it works fine.
