Make email escalations visible to Jira stakeholders

When an important issue is escalated in email, send a notification tied to the relevant Jira issue so stakeholders can respond sooner.

Trigger

New Email Received

Trigger for new emails in an AgentMail inbox

Action

Send Notification for Issue

Sends a customized email notification for a jira issue.

Why this helps

Urgent changes can sit unnoticed in one inbox while the people responsible for the Jira issue are elsewhere.

  • Bring explicit escalations to the issue's attention.
  • Help the right people see urgent context.
  • Reduce inbox monitoring overhead.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Agent Mail and Jira once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and define what qualifies as an escalation.
  • 3Ask Notis to send a customized Jira notification for a clearly referenced issue when a new email explicitly signals an escalation, including a concise explanation.
  • 4Pick New Email Received as the trigger and select a report destination.
  • 5Test with one real escalation example and a known issue.

Questions about this workflow

Will this notify someone for every urgent-sounding email?

Define the escalation signals you want and instruct Notis to skip messages that do not clearly meet them.

Can the notification include the email context?

Yes. Ask Notis to include a concise summary of the relevant details available in the message.
