Notis

Update Jira after a Buildkite deployment

Pass a deployment result to Notis and update the related Jira issue with the outcome and build link.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Edit Issue

Updates an existing jira issue with field values and operations. supports direct field parameters (summary, description, assignee, priority, etc.) that are merged with the fields parameter. direct parameters take precedence.

Why this helps

Deployment outcomes live in Buildkite while Jira tickets remain stale, so teams spend time checking both tools.

  • Keep deployment context alongside the tracked Jira work.
  • Reduce manual status note updates after a build.
  • Include the build or deployment link when supplied.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Buildkite and Jira once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation and describe how deployment results should update Jira.
  • 3Include a reliable Jira issue identifier and deployment result in the webhook data.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and a run-report destination.
  • 5Test with one real deployment result and verify the intended issue fields were updated.

Questions about this workflow

Can this change a Jira workflow status?

This workflow uses Edit Issue, which updates issue fields. To transition workflow status, a separate transition action would be needed.

What if the webhook does not include the Jira issue key?

Supply an issue key or another reliable association in the request. Without one, Notis should report that it cannot safely identify the issue to update.
