After all team members agree on an issue estimate , you usually want to have the agreed value saved in some Jira custom field (we call it the estimation field).
In Agile Poker for Jira Cloud, you can only estimate issues if the estimation field is correctly configured and valid for the appropriate issue types. If certain issues, such as bugs or tasks, are not visible in Agile Poker for Jira, it indicates that you need to add the estimation field (e.g., Story Points) to the relevant issue type.
In Team-managed projects, you can save estimates to available time fields or to any numeric field, including the Story point estimate field.
