Turn Customer Complaints Into Bug Reports

A customer emails that something's broken. Instead of that message sitting in your inbox until you remember to create a bug report, this automation creates it immediately with the customer's description intact.

Trigger

New Gmail Message Received Trigger

Triggers when a new message is received in Gmail.

Action

Create Issue

Creates a new jira issue (e.g., bug, task, story) in a specified project.

Why this helps

Customer bug reports arrive via email but get lost in your inbox, so you don't discover the issues until much later or hear the same complaint multiple times because it was never formally tracked.

  • Customer complaints automatically become tracked bug reports
  • Reduce response time to issues because they're in your system immediately
  • Never miss a customer-reported problem

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Gmail and Jira to Notis.
  • 2Tell Notis: 'When I receive an email from customers (specific email addresses or domain), create a 'Bug' issue in Jira with their complaint as the description and mark it as reported by that customer.'
  • 3Set the trigger to 'New Gmail Message Received' and choose your notification channel.
  • 4Test by sending yourself an email from a customer email address and verify the bug issue appears.

Questions about this workflow

How do you define 'customer email'?

Tell Notis to watch specific customer email addresses or domains, e.g., '@customername.com.'

Can it prioritize based on who's emailing?

Yes, you can say 'High priority if from enterprise customers' or similar.

Does it include attachments?

Yes, Notis attaches any files the customer sent so all context is in Jira.
