- Reduce manual re-entry of staffing updates.
- Preserve shift context in the task request.

Questions about this workflow
Does 7shifts provide a native trigger for this workflow?
No. Start it with a Notis webhook and have 7shifts or an intermediary send the relevant update to that webhook.
Can Notis decide which Jira project or issue type to use?
Describe the desired outcome in the automation instruction. Provide any project or issue type context Notis needs; setup does not include field mapping.
