referencing smart value to a date field to add days

[Teodor Hoza]

Hi, has anyone attempted to add the result of a smart value to a date field?

I have a smart value that returns a number and I'm trying to add that number to a date field

E.g.

numberOfDays= 88
syntax:

{{issue.customfield_12345.plusDays(numberOfDays)}}

when I try doing this it does not work

Hi @Teodor Hoza 

Where does the numberOfDays come from? Is this also a field within the issue?

Hi Stefan, the value comes from a Create Variable Card which calculates a number. I will share a screenshot.

Hi @Teodor Hoza 

as far as I know variables are stored as rype of string. Could you try to convert to number within your calculation? (numberOfDays.toNumber)

sorry @Teodor Hoza ,

the correct conversion is „asNumber“.
