Triage Jira work that may be affected by active absences

Use a scheduled check to find likely Jira work affected by absence and give someone a focused list to review.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Search issues

Advanced jira issue search supporting structured filters and raw jql.

Why this helps

Teams may not see that open work is affected by an absence until a deadline or handoff is missed.

  • Search for relevant Jira issues using supplied matching details.
  • Focus human review on likely affected work.
  • Keep any inferred relationship labeled as uncertain when the data is incomplete.

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 search Jira for issues that may match active absence details and report likely matches for coverage review, noting uncertainty.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one active absence and inspect the search matches.

Questions about this workflow

Will the search know an employee's issues automatically?

Only when issue content or supplied identifiers make the relationship clear. Have Notis report uncertain matches instead of treating them as confirmed.

Does it create coverage work?

No. It surfaces issues for review; a person can decide which items need a coverage task.
