Give waiting Bugherd issues a next check-in
Set a date to revisit issues that depend on someone else's response, so they do not vanish from view.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Create Event
Creates an event on a google calendar, needing rfc3339 utc start/end times (end after start) and write access to the calendar. by default, adds the organizer as an attendee unless exclude organizer is set to true.
Why this helps
Waiting on a reply can leave an issue in limbo with no clear reminder to check back.
- Create dated check-ins for items matching your waiting rule.
- Keep the relevant issue context close to the reminder.
- Reduce the mental load of tracking open dependencies.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Bugherd and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, with a name and prompt.
- 3Define which issues count as awaiting a response and the follow-up timing.
- 4Choose the recurring schedule trigger and select a run report destination.
- 5Test with one real issue that has the relevant response status or history.
Questions about this workflow
Can the workflow tell if someone has replied?
Only when the available Bugherd issue data includes the relevant response or status information.
How can I prevent duplicate check-ins?
Include a check for an existing future check-in for the same issue before creating another event.
