Make aging Bugherd issues visible before they get lost

Get a recurring follow-up list of open issues, grounded in the dates and statuses Bugherd actually returns.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Create a File from Text

Creates a new file in google drive from provided text content (up to 10mb), supporting various formats including automatic conversion to google workspace types.

Why this helps

Older reports can disappear into a queue when nobody has time to check which items still need a response.

  • Makes potentially overdue issues easier to spot.
  • Creates a review artifact without changing issue status.
  • Avoids claiming age when date information is unavailable.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Bugherd and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation from Automations, New Automation, and name it for follow-up review.
  • 3Tell Notis to list open issues with available age or activity dates in a dated Drive document, and flag missing dates instead of estimating.
  • 4Choose the cron schedule and a run report destination.
  • 5Test with one real run and confirm the listed issues have supporting dates.

Questions about this workflow

Can this decide what counts as stale?

State your preferred time threshold in the instruction. The workflow can only apply it when relevant dates are returned.

Does the document update Bugherd issues?

No. This workflow creates a Drive review document and does not modify Bugherd.
