Create Jira onboarding issues from BambooHR new hires

Start the onboarding work as soon as BambooHR has a new hire to share. Notis turns the HR context you provide into a Jira issue.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create Issue

Creates a new jira issue (e.g., bug, task, story) in a specified project.

Why this helps

New hires can be recorded in HR while the practical setup tasks wait in someone's inbox or memory.

  • Create a visible Jira task for each new hire event sent to Notis.
  • Keep HR and delivery work connected without retyping the provided context.
  • Make onboarding follow-up easier to find in the team's existing Jira workflow.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect BambooHR and Jira once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
  • 3In one instruction, tell Notis to create an onboarding issue using the new-hire details in the incoming BambooHR request.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real new-hire example and confirm the resulting Jira issue.

Questions about this workflow

Does BambooHR start this workflow automatically?

BambooHR has no trigger events listed here. An HTTP request to the Notis webhook starts the automation, so arrange for your BambooHR process or another approved sender to provide the new-hire context.

What information should the request include?

Include the employee details and onboarding context that should appear in Jira. Notis cannot infer fields BambooHR does not provide.
