Update Due Date as Start Date plus Story Point Estimate

[Adishesh Seshagiri]

Hi - I am creating a rule to update the due date as start Date plus story point estimate. 

I am unable to use any smart fields. 

Issue.Story Points is not updating anything for due date.

I am able to successfully automate based on default value e.g. {{now.plusBusinessDays(3)}}

Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

As a technical point, you should not be trying to do this.  Story points are NOT days, and their definition varies between teams.  If you're estimating it in time, then please, use a different field - it avoids confusion when people who have done Agile before see "story points" and you have to explain that you've misunderstood what they are for.

Could you explain what "unable to use any smart fields" means?  Why are you unable to use them?

I'm setting a due date to "a fortnight from now" based on {{triggerIssue.created.plusDays(14)}}
