How to clear the calculated value of a SLA

[Paul Wilkinson]

Hi

I need to clear the calculated value of a SLA when an event occurs (i.e. when a ticket is commented). I mean clear NOT restart from where it was paused.

I tried this in groovy:

issue.setFieldValue("customfield_xxxxx","" ) where xxxxx is the SLA customfield

but, although the returned value by issue.getAsString("customfield_xxxxx") is null, the value of the SLA is not recalculated in the Issue.

Can anyone suggest a solution?

Thanks

Paul

Hi @Paul Wilkinson 

Have you tried this API endpoint?

Please refer to the documentation https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/how-to-use-automation-to-recalculate-sla-on-a-specific-issue-subset-of-issues-1255455124.html

Hope this helps!

We are using DataCenter, not Cloud.

How can we make it work in DataCenter 

Thanks again

Hi

I found a simple solution:

• Stop the SLA (by satisfying a STOP condition)
• Start the SLA (by satisfying a START condition)

The Time could is automatically restarted the The cycles are even counted.

Thanks
