'Field value changed' automation rule with "Timetracking" - problem with accessing date

a_shevchuk December 29, 2018

I am trying to configure jira automation rule which would notify via email about logging time in previous logging period, like in previous month or week. 

I need to analyze current field change, which is time tracking, and look on it's date, but when I am trying to access {{fieldChange.toString}} it only returns a string with timestamp of remaining estimate. 

 

Is here a chance to get date of changed time tracking or maybe there are different ways to achieve what I need?

Hi Anton,

 

As mentioned on the community post - we have recently introduced the "Work Logged" trigger. If you switch your rule to use this, you will be able to access the started date of the worklog.

 

Hope that works.

 

Cheers,

Nick

Thank you for your reply!
Is this new trigger separate trigger or it's included into "field value change" trigger?

I can't see it in my options. Hm, maybe I am using outdated version of plugin?

Without knowing exactly what version you are on, I am guessing this is an older version. We only released this a few weeks ago.

Hi, I'm on Jira Cloud.
I've tried this to, but I doesn't get it to work.

In my transitions I've added the validation "field has to be changed". I've tried "Time Spent", "Sum Time Spent", "Time Tracking" and "Work log" to allow the transition only if the user has tracked it's time on the time tracking field, but none of them has worked.
Is there a solution to do this?
