Catch unassigned issues before they drift
Put unowned work in front of the team on a schedule, so it can get a clear next owner.
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
Unassigned reports can sit unnoticed because nobody has a reason to revisit them after intake.
- Makes unassigned work visible in a recurring review.
- Supports deliberate routing decisions.
- Does not silently assign issues to people.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Bugherd and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for unassigned issue review.
- 3Tell Notis to list issues with no assignee in the returned Bugherd data in a dated Drive document.
- 4Choose the cron schedule and a destination for run reports.
- 5Test with one real run and check how unassigned status is represented.
Questions about this workflow
Will this assign an owner automatically?
No. It creates a review list so the team can decide who should own each issue.
What if the assignee field is missing?
The prompt should distinguish unavailable assignment data from an issue explicitly returned as unassigned.
