How to change timespent with an automation rule?

[Markus Döring]

I'm using JIRA Time Tracking and want to change timespent / timeestimate in an automation rule.

When using Edit Issue with the following JSON, i get the error message 'unknown field ignored' when the rule is executed:

{
   "fields": {
      "timeestimate": "0"
   }
}

How can I solve this?

Hi Anthea,

Exports simply do not contain the project name, only the project key. Feel free to add a feature request for this if you think the name is necessary, too (https://interconcept.atlassian.net/projects/ICTIME). A workaround could be to add a custom field (via respective third party add-ons) that is autoamtically pre-populated with the project name to all issues and to manually add this field to exports - but honestly, this does not seem to make much sense only to get the project name.

Best regards

Tobias
