Overwrite number value from customfield to another - Automation

[Javier Lapeña]

Dear colleagues,

I'm trying to overwrite via automation an specific customfield (numeric type) with number value from another system field.

I made several tries:

as update-set

{
"update": {
{customfield_47204}: [{
"set": "{issue.customfield_10008}" }]
}

as JsonNumber value

{
{customfield_47204}: {{customfield_10008.value.asJsonNumber}}
}

as a regular number customfield 

Thank you in advance for any hint

Regards

Hi @Javier Lapeña , 

Why don't you try using the simple Edit componen to copy values from one system field to a custom field??

something like this works perfectly...

Cheers,

Hi @estebandiaz 

Thanks for your comment.

The issue is that the action required is just the opposite.

Copy from customfield (new field created ad hoc and doesn't appear on the list) to Story Points field.

@Javier Lapeña ... are you using Jira Cloud? or Server / DC ?

'cos I've tried backwards ... and it worked for me ... but I'm using Jira Cloud...

@Esteban Diaz I guess you have hit the nail on the head.
Maybe, this is the reason. I'm under our own server/dc.

Anyway, if my unique solution it's manage with Json clause, I was wondering if my tries are correct.

Thanks once more.

Hi @Javier Lapeña , 

This other way just worked for me ... 

{
"fields": {
"Story Points": {{issue.customfield_10050}}
}
}

I know I'm on Cloud... but give it try 😉

Cheers, 

Esteban

Thanks @Esteban Diaz 

That works. 

I was getting crazy and it's more simple than I expect.

Thanks for opening my eyes
