Assign texted Jira work to the right person
Turn a clear ownership request sent by SMS into a Jira assignment.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Assign Issue
Assigns a jira issue to a user, default assignee, or unassigns; supports email/name lookup.
Why this helps
A text that names who should take a task does not update the ticket's owner on its own.
- Put a texted ownership decision on the Jira issue.
- Reduce follow-up to confirm who owns the next step.
- Keep the assignment linked to the identified ticket.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Android Texter and Jira once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation.
- 3Tell Notis to assign the Jira issue from each webhook request to the person named in its SMS details.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real SMS example containing an issue key and assignee.
