Hello,

When we put an issue back to backlog (from sprint A to backlog) in project A, we want that to be the same in project B. (Assuming sync between project A and project B is well configured).

Until now, it was working well by doing:

```auto
issue.customFields.Sprint.value = nodeHelper.getCustomFieldDefaultValue("Sprint", issue)

```

But now, it’s not working anymore, the change is not synced.

The sprint sync is working well.

Is there another way to achieve this ?

Thank you in advance.
