Match Breathe HR onboarding owners to Jira accounts

Resolve the right Jira user account for each onboarding owner before assignment or watcher steps happen.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Find Users

Searches for jira users by email, display name, or username to find account ids; essential for assigning issues, adding watchers, and other user-related operations.

Why this helps

Names in HR records do not always match Jira accounts, making ownership handoffs unreliable.

  • Find likely Jira accounts using HR names or email details when available.
  • Flag missing or ambiguous matches for a person to resolve.
  • Prepare accurate account details for a separate assignment workflow.

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 look up Jira accounts for the named onboarding owners and report only clear matches or unresolved cases.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one known employee and confirm the Jira account match.

Questions about this workflow

Does this assign onboarding issues?

No. This workflow finds Jira users and reports matches. Assignment should happen only when the intended issue and owner are confirmed.

What if two Jira users have similar names?

Treat the match as ambiguous and report it for review. Email or another distinguishing detail can help when available.
