How to setup Watch Event for Task Planned Hour (workRequired) in Fusion

I'm trying to set up a Watch Event in Fusion to trigger when a task's Planned Hours change. However, the workRequired field (as labeled in the API) doesn't appear in the dropdown list in the Fusion UI.

Is there a way to manually specify this field in the filter, or is there a recommended workaround for this in Fusion?

I manually created webhooks with a POST request, to watch both the workRequiredand work fields, but neither triggered when task changes were made in Workfront. However, webhooks on other task fields worked as expected, so this may be an issue specific to those fields.

All I can think of is to create a calculated field that refers to {workRequired} and use the calc field in the filter.
