This post function automatically creates worklogs for one or multiple issues.


Configuration

Select the issue(s) to log work on. The following options are available:

OptionDescription
Current issueWork will be logged on the current issue.
Parent issueWork will be logged on the current issue's parent.
Sub-tasksWork will be logged on the current issue's sub-tasks. If you choose this option you can further filter your selection (e.g. by issue type or status). Only useful for standard issues. 
Sibling sub-tasksWork will be logged on the current issue's sibling sub-tasks. Only useful if the current issue is a sub-task. 
Linked issuesWork will be logged on linked issues. If you choose this option you can further filter your selection (e.g. by issue type or status). 
Linked epicWork will be logged on the related epic.
Issues under epicWork will be logged on all issues related to the same epic. If you choose this option you can further filter your selection (e.g. by issue type or status). 
Sibling issues under epicWork will be logged on all sibling issues related to the same epic. If you choose this option you can further filter your selection (e.g. by issue type or status). 
Set target issue manually (parser expression)

Define the issues that work will be logged on by defining an expression. The JQL mode and Issue list mode are available.

The expression must return either a valid JQL expression or an issue list with issue keys.




You can either enter the number of minutes or calculate the value in the Numeric mode. The result should be the number of minutes to be logged.


Specify the starting date-time for the time log. Since a timestamp is always represented by a number you must specify the expression in the Numeric mode. 

If leaving this field blank, the current date-time is used.


This parameter adds a standard description to your work log. You can either enter plain text and optionally use field codes to insert field values using the mixed parsing mode.


Remaining estimate

You can decide how to proceed with the remaining estimate of the issues. You have the two following options:

OptionDescription
Auto adjustment

The issues' remaining estimate will be reduced by the amount of work logged.

Retain remaining estimate

The issues' remaining estimate will not be updated.
