Coordinate Jira work coverage for Breathe HR absences

Make absence handoffs easier by turning relevant HR absence details into clear Jira work.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Bulk Create Issues

Creates multiple jira issues (up to 50 per call) with full feature support including markdown, assignee resolution, and priority handling.

Why this helps

When someone is away, teams can lose time figuring out which work needs coverage and who should follow up.

  • Create one or more Jira tasks for absence-related coverage.
  • Keep follow-up work visible to the team.
  • Avoid inventing impacted projects or tasks when HR data does not provide them.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Breathe HR and Jira once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create a new automation in Automations, then name it and add a prompt.
  • 3Tell Notis to create Jira coverage tasks from an absence webhook, using only available absence details and explicitly supplied coverage instructions.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real absence example.

Questions about this workflow

Can Notis decide which work needs coverage?

Only when the impacted work or coverage rules are supplied or can be grounded in the available context. Otherwise, the Jira tasks can capture the absence and request a coverage decision.

Why use bulk create?

Bulk Create Issues can create multiple related Jira tasks in one call when an absence requires several follow-ups.
