Link Jira issues affected by one Buildkite failure
Keep related investigations connected when one Buildkite failure affects more than one tracked issue.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Link Issues
Links two jira issues using a specified link type with optional comment.
Why this helps
Separate tickets for the same failure make it harder to see shared investigation work and avoid duplicated effort.
- Make related Jira investigations easier to navigate.
- Preserve the relationship between issues affected by one failure.
- Reduce duplicated investigation across disconnected tickets.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Buildkite and Jira once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation and describe when two Jira issues should be linked.
- 3Include both Jira issue keys and the shared Buildkite failure context in the webhook request.
- 4Choose a webhook trigger and a destination for run reports.
- 5Test with one real case and confirm the relationship type is appropriate.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis infer which Jira issues are related?
It can use issue references and relationships included in the webhook or other available context. Provide both issue keys and specify the desired Jira link relationship.
What if only one Jira issue is identified?
The workflow needs two issues to create a link. Instruct Notis to report the missing reference instead of guessing.
