Is it possible to add time to a Date Time custom field?

[Liam Maeder]

Good Day

I am having a minor issue which is affecting our SLA.

So what we are hoping to achieve is to setup an automation rule that can add time to a date time value from another field and add it to a custom field.

So if:

Priority Task = Yes

Then:

Start Time = Created Time + 1 hour

Else:

Start Time = Created Time

Please any assistance would be appreciated. 

We are using Jira Server 8.5 and Automation for Jira.

Hi @Liam Maeder 

If I wanted to capture only the time, I would:

• Create a new text field and associate it with the appropriate VIEW screen
• Create the automation rule
• On If priority - task
  • edit issue component "{{issue.created.plusHours(1).shortTime}}"
• Else
  • edit issue component "{{issue.created.shortTime}}"

The above would give me the TIME only on a read-only text field.

Is this something you could work on?

Alex

I was playing around with the automation and I got the same result, but thanks, it works perfectly :)

Hi @Liam Maeder  Use below smart value , Select Action  >> Select Edit Issue >> 

Select "Start Time field" :- Add below smart value 

{{issue.created.plusHours(1)}}

or

{{now.plusHours(1)}}

 Hope it works for you!
