Hello! I am new here and thank you so much for allowing this space for questions. As the title reads, I am going through the training course for the acp 620 and in the section where we use smart values for automation.
Specifically, we created a rule where when a story is changed to in progress, to assign a due date 5 days out, which I have managed to assign using the {{now.plusBusinessDays(5)}} smart value. It populates the due date as expected. Afterwards I have an and rule, that reads: add comment to issue:
"
The due date has automatically been set to: {{issue.duedate}}
The priority is: {{issue.priority.name}}
"
When I test my automation, I move a story to in progress, the due date is populated, but the comment is also populated as follows:
The comment is populated but missing the due date used, in this case June 11th. Any thoughts? Thank you so much in advance
Hi @IQ Papelerias IQ Papelerias,
Just to try it out, can you see what happens if you add a "Re-fetch Issue Data" action component in your Automation rule, right before the component which adds the comment?
If that doesn't work, can you share a screenshot of your automation rule here?
Best,
Andrew
That did the trick! Thank you so much. Oddly enough, the training course did not mention doing that or anything. Thanks again!

@IQ Papelerias IQ Papelerias right on! Happy to hear that.
I've noticed that sometimes the re-fetch is needed for Automation components that use smart values to reference other elements on an issue that were set/updated earlier in the same automation rule.
Glad it worked for you!
