Give a release milestone a planning home in Jira as soon as its document event arrives.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create Version

Why this helps
Release dates and milestone names can stay in documents while Jira planning lacks a matching version.
- Create a Jira version from supplied milestone details.
- Keep release planning aligned with source documents.
- Reduce duplicate entry of milestone information.

- 1Connect ActiveMerge and Jira once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and give it a clear name.
- 3In one instruction, tell Notis to create a Jira project version from the release name and date in the event.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real release document event.
