Atlassian.Jira Sdk --> set Remaining Estimation Time when create a Issue

[Jens Debernitz]

after creating an issue. I would like to set the Remaining Estimation Time. For the API SDK, however, the field TimeTracking is only one read.

 Issue story = Global.GlobalSettings.JiraInstance.CreateIssue("CGMDETM");
 story.Type = "User Story";
 story.Priority = "Major";
 story.Summary = TICKET_SUMMARY[count] + " | "+ ComboBoxTeam.Text + " " + sprint.SprintName + "-" + TextFieldVersion.Text;
 story.FixVersions.Add(TextFieldVersion.Text);
 story.DueDate = DateTime.Now;
 story.Assignee = Global.GlobalSettings.UserName;
 story.Description = TICKET_DESCRIPTION[count]; 
 

//here will I set the remainig estimation

 try
 {
 story.SaveChanges();
 }

What is the reason for setting the remaining estimation time? Out of the box it is a calculated field, the difference of estimated time and logged time.

If you want to set the h/d/w configuration, then:

• Select the Jira icon/ Jira settings/ Issues.
• Under ISSUE FEATURES, select Time Tracking.
• Click Edit global settings.

Hope this helps

I would like to set the following things when creating my issue:
Estimated time:
Remaining time:

we already see it above i try it via the SDK.

take a look at ScriptRunner. I am not a user, but I believe this is an option for what you are trying to do.

Remaining time is a function of estimated time and logged time, what is the value of changing the calculation?
