Make external dependencies visible in Jira

If another system identifies a dependency between tracked items, make that connection visible on the Jira issues themselves.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Link Issues

Links two jira issues using a specified link type with optional comment.

Why this helps

Dependencies reported outside Jira can be missed, leaving teams unaware of connected work.

  • Make dependencies visible in Jira.
  • Improve traceability across systems.
  • Reduce missed cross-team connections.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Jira once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and describe which external relationships should be reflected in Jira.
  • 3Ask Notis to link the two clearly identified issues using the relationship specified in the request.
  • 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one request containing two known issue keys.

Questions about this workflow

What information must the request include?

Include enough information to identify both issues and the relationship to represent.

What if a requested relationship is not configured?

Jira only supports configured link types. Tell Notis to report when the requested type is unavailable.
