Add Blackboard engagement context to Jira

Trigger

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

Why this helps
Engagement findings can be separated from the issue they help explain, forcing teams to hunt for context.
- Keep engagement updates beside related work.
- Preserve report context in a Jira comment.
- Avoid manually copying observations into tickets.
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.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to add supplied engagement updates as comments to the Jira issues identified in the report.
- 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real engagement update and a matching Jira issue.
Questions about this workflow
Does this workflow create a new issue?
No. It adds a comment to an existing Jira issue identified by the report or your instruction.
What if the report does not identify a Jira issue?
Provide the issue key in the webhook payload or instruct Notis how to identify the matching issue. Missing identifiers cannot be inferred reliably.
