Why am I receiving an error message when trying to save story points?
The issue with saving estimates in Jira might stem from particular configuration settings. It's crucial to verify that the estimation field is appropriately configured and deemed valid for the necessary issue types. If you're unable to view specific issues, such as bugs or tasks, in Agility Poker Planning for Jira, this suggests that an estimation field, like Story Points, needs to be included for these issue types. For comprehensive guidance on how to configure this, please consult the available documentation here Jira Configuration. Adhering to these instructions should enable smooth estimate saving in Jira.
Other error messages relating to this include:
Answer: This error typically occurs when the estimation values being used don't align with Jira's expected format for the Estimation Field. For instance, if you've chosen 'Time Estimations', the data is formatted to suit the 'Original Estimation' field, not the 'Story Point' field. Consequently, Jira rejects this mismatched format, leading to the error. To resolve this, please ensure that your selected estimation value correctly corresponds with the Estimation Field you intend to use. Remember, you can adjust the estimation settings either when initiating a session or while editing within an existing session. By aligning your estimation values with the appropriate field, you should be able to save story points without encountering this error.
