Notis

Keep release stakeholders watching Jira deployment work

Make sure the people following a release can receive updates on the relevant Jira issues.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Add Watcher to Issue

Adds a user to an issue's watcher list by account id.

Why this helps

Stakeholders can miss release changes when they are not watching the issues that carry the work.

  • Keep a designated stakeholder connected to relevant issue updates
  • Reduce manual watcher setup across release work
  • Make follow-up visibility more consistent

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Jira once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation that finds matching release issues and adds the stakeholder account you specify as a watcher.
  • 3Choose a recurring schedule and a channel for run reports.
  • 4Test with one matching issue and confirm the intended account is watching it.

Questions about this workflow

Does the workflow discover stakeholders in Appcircle?

No. Specify the Jira account to add and the Jira criteria for the release issues.

Can any account be added as a watcher?

The account must be valid in Jira, and the authenticated user needs permission to manage watchers on the issue.
