Keep onboarding stakeholders informed on Jira issues
Add the named onboarding stakeholder to the Jira issue's watcher list so issue updates reach the right person.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Add Watcher to Issue
Adds a user to an issue's watcher list by account id.
Why this helps
The people responsible for onboarding can miss Jira updates when they are not watching the related work.
- Bring a named stakeholder into Jira issue updates.
- Use a supplied Jira account identifier for the watcher action.
- Keep unrelated HR employee records out of the watcher list.
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 add the supplied Jira account as a watcher on the identified onboarding issue when the handoff names them as a stakeholder.
- 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real issue and a verified Jira account.
Questions about this workflow
Does Breathe HR provide Jira account IDs?
Not necessarily. Provide a Jira account ID, or use an available user lookup step in the prompt context before adding the watcher.
Can Notis add every employee as a watcher?
The workflow should add only a person identified as a relevant stakeholder in the handoff.
