Hello,
Is there any way with automation rules to update the 'Time spent' field of the epic to reflect the sum of the 'Time Spent' fields of each of the subtasks and other issue types that are children of the epic?
I have gotten it to reflect the original estimate and remaining original estimate but cannot update the time spent field as it gives me this error:
"Setting the Time Spent directly is not supported."
Example of what i want:
Is that possible?
I do not want additional work logs to be added to the epic, just the 'Time Tracking' field to reflect the sum of the time tracking of the child issues.
Hello Daniel
Welcome to our community.
The only way to achieve it is by using automation for Jira
For the automation rule, this community post is helpful, particularly the first response from Michael Marriott that shows how he sets it up for subtasks to tasks
Action is: #=issue.subtasks.original estimate.sum / 60{{/}}
Then,
Created this rule for changing the Epic Estimate when Story estimate changes
In the last action step I used:
#=lookupIssues.original estimate.sum / 60{{/}}
Make sure you allow the first rule to trigger the second rule by setting;
'Allow Trigger' in the rule details of the second (Update Epic) rule
Hope that helps!
The above response is for Original estimate, not Time Spent. Can you confirm this solution does not work for Time spent

Hello Helen
The field Time Spent is part of the time tracking feature.
Thanks
