How to sync Story point estimates?

Originally asked by NJ on 10 June 2020 (original question)


I know it is possible to sync the custom field “Story points” but for a jira cloud to another jira cloud cross-company. I cant see any way to sync the “Story point estimate” field.

I’ve tried with:
instance_1.issue.customFields.“Story point estimate”.value = instance_2.issue.customFields.“Story point estimate”.value

But that doesnt sync anything.Kilde: Jira Cloud (old community)

Hi NJ,

Story points should use time tracking fields such as “Remaining estimate or Time spent”. So here is the documentation for this: https://docs.idalko.com/exalate/x/8QB1Aw

If you have visual, have you tried doing the following:

jira_cloud_instance_1.issue.timeSpent = jira_cloud_instance_2.issue.timeSpent
jira_cloud_instance_1.issue.remainingEstimate = jira_cloud_instance_2.issue.remainingEstimate

Kind regards,

Ariel
