Why this helps
People who need to track remediation may miss updates when they are not watching the relevant Jira issues.
- Subscribe specified reviewers to issue updates
- Use a recurring run to cover selected issues
- Reduce repeated manual watcher maintenance
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Borneo and Jira once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, or tell Notis to set it up from any channel.
- 3Tell Notis which Jira issues and users to use when adding watchers on each run.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real issue and Jira account id.
Questions about this workflow
Can this use an email address directly?
The watcher action requires an account id. Resolve an email or name with Jira user lookup if needed.
Will adding a watcher assign the reviewer?
No. Watchers receive issue notifications, while assignment names the person responsible for the work.
