   Hello.  Not sure if you have an answer for this.  I just started playing with Azure/Jira sync.  I am able to get time sync from Jira to Azure.  If you are getting from Azure to Jira, I would love some assistance on what you have scripted.

   
   

   Here is what I came up with

   Outgoing Jira:

   
   

   // Add the time tracking information to the datafilter
   replica.timeSpent = issue.timeSpent
   replica.originalEstimate = issue.originalEstimate
   replica.remainingEstimate = issue.remainingEstimate

   
   

   Incoming script to Azure

   
   

   //Time Tracking
   if(replica.originalEstimate) {
   workItem."Microsoft.VSTS.Scheduling.OriginalEstimate" = (replica.originalEstimate as Double)/3600
   }
   if(replica.remainingEstimate) {
   workItem."Microsoft.VSTS.Scheduling.RemainingWork" = (replica.estimate as Double)/3600
   }
   if(replica.timeSpent) {
   workItem."Microsoft.VSTS.Scheduling.CompletedWork" = (replica.spent as Double)/3600
   }

   
   

   Seems the documentation here isn't as direct as we could hope for.  I had to piece this together trial and error and I think I got a hint from a community post.

   Hope that helps.

      We agree - the documentation can be improved a lot on providing better hints but before creating the wrong expectations - it can only go that far.  The community site is a much better way to document approaches of the near infinite number of use cases that exalate can be used for.
