Notis

Notify Jira stakeholders about critical course impact

Send a focused Jira notification when a course report signals a critical issue needs attention.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Send Notification for Issue

Sends a customized email notification for a jira issue.

Why this helps

Critical course impact may not reach the people following the Jira issue quickly enough.

  • Bring a stated critical issue to stakeholders' attention.
  • Include useful context in the notification.
  • Reduce manual follow-up when course impact is high.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Blackboard and Jira once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or describe it to Notis from any channel.
  • 3Ask Notis to send a customized Jira issue notification only when the Blackboard report describes critical impact, including the supplied context.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real critical report and a known Jira issue.

Questions about this workflow

Who receives the notification?

Jira controls notification recipients based on its issue notification configuration and the action's available options.

What qualifies as critical?

Specify the impact criteria in your instruction. Notis should not assume a threshold that the report does not provide.
