Hello,
I am looking to set my due date field in Jira automation so it takes the value in start date and adds 7 days. Mind helping me out?
Here is what I tried (which didn't work obviously):
Thanks for your time.
Hi Jonathan,
Can you share the entire rule?
Are you updating the Due Date based on the Start Date in the same issue? Or from a Trigger issue? Because what you have should work in the same issue. Otherwise you should use
{{triggerissue.startDate.plusDays(7)}}
Hi @Jonathan Smith
What is the trigger?
Tim
Try this
{{triggerIssue.startDate.plusDays(7)}}
Same issue. Parent's due date should be based on the parent's start date+7.
I am planning to remove due date from the create screen, but want it filled out and available in view/edit.
Trigger did not work.
Hi @Tim Perrault ,
See above.
Thanks!
{{sprint.startDate.plusDays(7)}}
So you would not use triggerissue in this case because it is the same issue.
And if you just use issue.startDate then it does not work either?
I would suggest using the ID of the custom field then. The syntax would look like:
{{issue.customfield_10779.plusDays(7)}} where 10779 in this example is the value of the Start Date field. To find that, go to Settings > Issues > Custom Fields.
Search for the field. Then click the 3 dots menu on the right hand side and select Contexts and Default Value. Then look at the URL to find the ID.
BINGO - {{issue.customfield_10015.plusDays(7)}} worked.
Thanks for your assistance!
