When a newer extraction arrives, keep the related Jira ticket in step with the latest supplied details.
Trigger

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action

Why this helps
Teams may keep working from stale ticket details after a document has been corrected or processed again.
- Keep an existing ticket aligned with a newer extraction payload.
- Highlight changed or uncertain details for human review.
- Reduce manual copying of corrected document information.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Affinda and Jira once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal under Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis in plain language from any channel.
- 3Describe that an incoming updated extraction should revise the referenced Jira issue with supplied current details and summarize what changed.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real updated extraction and its Jira issue key.
Questions about this workflow
What does the request need to identify?
Include the Jira issue key or another unambiguous issue reference, along with the updated extraction details.
Can Notis determine which values changed?
It can compare values only when the new payload and a previous baseline are available. Include prior values if you want a comparison.
