Jira Auromation rule is failing - Unknown fields set during edit

[Sara Bardají]

Hi!

I have an automation rule that sums up the Original Estimate and Remaining Estimate values of issues to their Parent.

I am updating Original Estimate field with: {{#=}}{{lookupIssues.original estimate.sum}} / 60{{/}}m

and Remaining Estimate field with: {{#=}}{{lookupIssues.remaining estimate.sum}} / 60{{/}}m

However, I am getting the following error when the rule runs:

What is also strange to me, is that the rule doesn't always fail. In the follwoing image I show the Audit Log of two executions of this same rule, with the same Associated Item and Branch rule/related issues:

Hi Sara,
Some things to respect in your automation (in terms of keeping it simple):

• You're not checking if the parent link (a custom field!) is empty prior to requesting parent-stuff.
• Project-screening can be done on the rule scope. If you insist in putting it in the automation, please consider putting it as one of the first conditions. Both will shorten the execution time of your automation if an issue out-off scope is the trigger.
• I believe there's special branches for the children of epics, which means you would not need the lookup issues action.
