I need to create an automation that will get the fields from Epic (fields only applicable for epics not any task or issue) and sum of all the values from that fields needs to be reflect on Dashboard as well. I tried with the same but not able to do total of that fields. I can't use any script runner or plugins as well, I've to do that by automation rule only. If someone has any idea for that please share.

Hi @Sumit Raghuvanshi

A dashboard gadget shows information from issues or issues it self.

You can't show just a calculation of some field values, as the field that would store the information needs to exist, custom field and this field needs to be on a screen of an issue type to be shown in a gadget on a dashboard.

So there is a total explanation, select the edit fields option in the rule this shows the sum up action.

Please check this template - https://www.atlassian.com/software/jira/automation-template-library/rules#/rule/9919294

It's almost as your case. You need to modify it little bit.

Hi @Sebastian Krzewiński, 

I've went through the template for some points it is helpful but still there is no explanation about total. Do you have any other idea ?
