Automation : timeSpent = timeestimate when subtask is Done

[François Kirié]

Hi,

I would like to implement an automation where when a subtask is done, the timeSpent take all the time remaining from this subtask.

I have tried with this and it worked :

...

"add": {
"timeSpent" : "{{timeestimate.divide(60)}}m"
}..

The pbm is when the timeestimate is with 2 decimals, i have an error ... (invalid datetime)

ie : 0.13d (for 1hour)

I think that i missed a time conversion or others .. Any ideas ?

Thanks for your help

Hi @François Kirié 

Would you please confirm what you are trying to do?  Your description notes removing all of the remaining time, but your smart value references the time just logged. 

Please check here to confirm your smart values: https://support.atlassian.com/cloud-automation/docs/jira-smart-values-issues/#--issue.timetracking--

Kind regards,
Bill

Hi @Bill Sheboy ,

I would like that when a sub-tasks is done, all the estimate time will be consume by automation (so add in the field time spent).

Thanks for your help

Kind regards,
François

Given that, would it be better to use {{issue.timetracking.remainingestimate}} when subtracting all the remaining time?

...

"add": {
"timeSpent" : "{{issue.timetracking.remainingestimate}}d"
}..

I have got the same problem using this. It doesn't worked for example with 0.13d (for 1hour) but it worked for example with 1d or 2d.

The error is : Invalid Duration entered (worklog_timeLogged))

It seems to have a conversion problem
