Notis

Keep Jira ownership in step with handoffs

Make an ownership handoff visible in Jira as soon as the change reaches Notis.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Assign Issue

Assigns a jira issue to a user, default assignee, or unassigns; supports email/name lookup.

Why this helps

A handoff can be agreed in one system while the Jira issue still points to the previous owner.

  • Assign the related Jira issue to the owner named in the request.
  • Keep ownership aligned with handoffs reported by Celigo.
  • Reduce the manual step of finding and reassigning each ticket.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Celigo and Jira once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis what you want from any channel.
  • 3Ask Notis to assign the Jira issue identified in each handoff webhook to the new owner included in the request.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real handoff notice.

Questions about this workflow

What should the webhook include?

Include the Jira issue identifier and enough information to resolve the intended assignee, such as a name or email supported by the action.

Can this unassign an issue?

The Jira assignment action supports unassigning, but this workflow assigns the issue to the new owner supplied by the webhook.

What happens if the assignee cannot be resolved?

Notis can report the run result. Check the Jira user details and permissions if the requested user cannot be found.
