Notis

Connect related Jira work uncovered by an incident

When an incident ties two Jira issues together, link them so the relationship is easy for the team to follow.

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

Related work can look unrelated in Jira when incident context stays outside the issue tracker.

  • Make relationships between existing Jira issues visible.
  • Keep incident-driven connections attached to the work.
  • Reduce manual issue-linking during investigation.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Better Stack and Jira once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation by telling Notis the outcome you want, in plain language or in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to link the two Jira issues identified in the incident data using the appropriate configured link type.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real example that identifies both issues.

Questions about this workflow

What information is required to link issues?

The incident data or instruction needs to identify both Jira issues, and the selected link type must be available in the Jira instance.

Can Notis decide the relationship automatically?

You can describe the decision rule, but Notis needs enough context in the webhook data to apply it. If a required relationship is unknown, provide it.
