How to get better smart values in email automation

[Michał Pacewski]

Hey,

I am trying to create automation to send me email while ticket time logged is near to estimation (work ratio 80%)

Basically, I managed, but when I try to work on the email content - most of the values does not work.

At this moment only {{issue.key}} and {{issue.url}} has worked for me. 

I would like to have:
Subject: {issue.key}} has reached {{work.ratio}} of original estimate {{original.estimate [h] }}

Content: 
{{issue.url}}
{{issue.key}} {{issue.summary}}
has reached {{work.ratio}} of original estimate {{original.estimate [h] }}
{{issue.asignee}}

Can you help how to make it work?

Currently, in the email I receive blank space

Hi @Michał Pacewski 

You shouldn't need the "fields" inbetween these smart values.

---

WorkRatio:

• The smart value is missing the s on fields, but {{issue.workRatio}} should work

Summary:

• {{issue.Summary}} should work

Issue URL / Key:

• I'd combine these using a hyperlink - try this:
  • <a href="{{url}}">{{issue.key}}</a>

Original Estimate:

• The smart value is {{issue.timeOriginalEstimate}} - but this returns the result in a default setting of seconds 
• You need to convert this to hours - although it will be decimal based - eg. 2.5 hours
• The smart value I tried was {{#=}}ROUND(({{issue.timeOriginalEstimate}} / 60 / 60),2){{/}}

Let us know how these go :)
