We have a rule in the project that a story must have a story point estimates when it is in an active sprint. Which means, it is OK to leave the field "Story Points" empty when the issue is in the backlog, but as soon as it is put in an active sprint, the field must contain a value (even if it is zero).
Unfortunately, team members sometimes forget this, so I asked our Jira expert to develop an automation which immediately sends a mail to the person who updated the issue.
Now they tell me that the field "Sprint" is not available as a trigger, even though Atlassian claims that "All fields are available as triggers" Jira automation triggers | Cloud automation Cloud | Atlassian Support.
My next idea was to use "UpdatedDate", i.e. to perform this check when any field has changed, but it seems that this field as well is not available, as it is not an editable field, but automatically updated by the system.
Any ideas how I could identify when a user has updated the Sprint field so I could trigger that automation? Thanks!
First thing, I am using Jira Cloud, not Server version, and so cannot test my suggestions.
Have you tried using the Field Value Changed trigger and using the Sprint field? If that does not work...
Please try the more generic Issue Updated trigger, and then check the {{changelog}} smart value to learn if the the sprint field changed. https://confluence.atlassian.com/automation/smart-values-993924860.html
Kind regards,
Bill
