This problem users solve on their own with support-built-in

By default ‘Company managed’ projects are set up so that the ‘Story points’ field needs to be associated with the relevant project screens so that the story point value can be updated using 3rd party add-ons. When users try to save an estimate when the screen association is missing the following error occurs:

{"errorText":"doPutAs Error invoking:{"value_":"/rest/api/3/issue/TEST-4"} from Jira: 400 Bad Request Error Details: {"errorMessages":[],"errors":{"customfield_10030":"Field 'customfield_10030' cannot be set. It is not on the appropriate screen, or unknown."}} "}
