cannot find 'subtasks' under 'issue' in smart values

[Yaniv Ben-Dror]

Trying to create Automation for: aggregate sub-tasks 'original estimate' and display the result at Parent 'original estimate'.  In that thread : 
https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/Sum-up-rough-estimation-original-estimation-and-time-tracking/qaq-p/2467807 . I've notice that I should use:
{{}#=}{{issue.subtasks.original estimate.sum}}{{/}} .
unfortunately, while searching (in Smart Value) under 'issue' , I can't find 'subtasks' 
Any idea ? Thanks

Hi @Yaniv Ben-Dror ,

When referring to:

...unfortunately, while searching (in Smart Value) under 'issue' , I can't find 'subtasks'... 

I'm guessing you're talking about Smart Values Help Panel?
If so, I don't think this specific smart value is displayed there, but you can still use it.

Additionally, you can maybe leave a comment/suggestion on an announcement post (linked above) or reach out to Atlassian Support to add that suggestion to JAC dashboard.

Cheers and happy new year,
Tobi

Hi Tobi, thanks for the response.
you're right, I've meant Smart Value Help Panel.
I'll use it as you suggest and verify.

Thanks

Hi @Yaniv Ben-Dror -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Adding to the suggestions from @Tomislav Tobijas ...

That smart values "help" feature is quite new, and my understanding is it will eventually load all possible smart values and not just a static list.

While we wait for that, you may learn the available smart values (and their structure and correct capitalization) using this how-to article: https://support.atlassian.com/cloud-automation/docs/find-the-smart-value-for-a-field/

Essentially the steps are to identify an example issue you want to check, call the REST API endpoint using a browser tab, and then review the results on the page.  This technique also helps when you need to find the custom field ID to use in place of the smart value.

Kind regards,
Bill
