Create Jira bugs when Buildkite builds fail
Send a Buildkite failure to Notis and get a Jira bug with the details your team needs to investigate.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create Issue
Creates a new jira issue (e.g., bug, task, story) in a specified project.
Why this helps
Build failures get lost in chat or build logs, leaving someone to manually open Jira and reconstruct what happened.
- Keep build failures visible in the team's issue tracker.
- Include the pipeline, build link, and failure information provided by Buildkite.
- Reduce manual copying between Buildkite and Jira.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Buildkite and Jira once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis the outcome you want.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to create a Jira bug from a failed build and include its available details and link.
- 4Choose a webhook trigger, then select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real failed build and check the Jira issue.
Questions about this workflow
How does a Buildkite build start this workflow?
Buildkite has no listed trigger event here, so the workflow starts when a webhook HTTP request reaches Notis. Configure the Buildkite side to send the event to that webhook.
Will the Jira issue include all job logs?
The workflow can include information returned with the webhook. If logs are not included, supply them in the request or have the automation use available details and the build link.
