Notis

Prepare a sprint for upcoming community work

Give planned community improvements a focused sprint when the team is ready to organize the work.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Create Sprint

Creates a new sprint on a jira board with optional start/end dates and goal.

Why this helps

Community initiatives can enter planning without a time-boxed delivery window, leaving priorities vague and easy to defer.

  • Create a sprint tied to a real planning cycle.
  • Give selected community work a shared delivery window.
  • Reduce manual sprint setup for recurring initiatives.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Brilliant Directories and Jira once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or by telling Notis what planning event to handle.
  • 3In one instruction, state when a new sprint is warranted and provide the board, dates, and goal from your planning context.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real planning cycle and verify the sprint details.

Questions about this workflow

Can Notis invent sprint dates from the schedule?

Provide the intended dates or a clear date rule in the instruction. The schedule starts the automation but does not supply planning details by itself.

Does creating the sprint add issues to it?

No. This workflow creates the sprint. Issue selection and sprint placement would need a separate instruction and action.
