Create a Jira sprint for an Apilio release window

Give a release window a clear home on the board, with dates and a goal your team can plan around.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Create Sprint

Creates a new sprint on a jira board with optional start/end dates and goal.

Why this helps

Release timing and delivery planning are easy to lose between operational context and agile board setup.

  • Create a sprint with release window dates you specify
  • Give planned work a clear goal
  • Reduce manual setup when release timing is agreed

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Apilio and Jira once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, provide or identify the release window, board, and sprint goal, then ask Notis to create the Jira sprint.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real release window and verify the sprint dates and goal.

Questions about this workflow

Can Apilio provide release dates automatically?

Only if the connected data exposes them. Otherwise, include the dates and goal in your instruction.

Does creating the sprint move issues into it?

No. This action creates a sprint. Moving issues requires a separate Jira action and a separate workflow.
