I have been banging my head on this for days trying to get it to work. My company has added Tempo to our instance, and no matter what I do I can't update the Remaining Estimate field to update programmatically AND display that fact. I'm going to pose a new question. https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/How-do-I-programmatically-update-estimates-with-Tempo-add-on/qaq-p/942306

Hello Ashish,

you should find all the information you need in the section "Adding a worklog entry during create" of the following documentation:
https://developer.atlassian.com/jiradev/api-reference/jira-rest-apis/jira-rest-api-tutorials/jira-rest-api-example-create-issue 

I hope this answers your question.

Regards,
Philipp
