Description
The "Story Points" field is a special field in the Jira Software context. But it's possible to translate and rename it. By performing these actions, there are no changes in the Jira Software - the field is correctly identified, and all work as before the field rename.
However, using the field name is the only way to identify the "Story Points" field in the Jira fields list retrieved from the Get Fields Jira Cloud API endpoint. And, if the field is renamed, there isn't a way to identify which of the returned numeric fields is the "Story Points" field.
There should be a REST API to get the custom field ID for "Story Points" field in the Jira Software Cloud as for example, in the Jira DC there is a numeric property (table propertyentry) "GreenHopper.StoryPoints.Default.customfield.id" with the custom field ID stored.
