Close the loop on completed review work by removing a reviewer from the relevant Jira issue watcher lists.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Remove Watcher from Issue

Removes a user from an issue's watcher list by account id.

Why this helps

Old watcher subscriptions can keep notifications noisy after someone no longer needs to follow the work.

  • Keep issue notifications relevant
  • Reduce noise for reviewers after work is complete
  • Clean up watcher lists in one scheduled pass

  • 1Connect 21risk and Jira once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis which completed Jira issues to find and which reviewer account id to remove as a watcher.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one completed issue and confirm the reviewer is removed.
