Notis

Create Jira issues instantly from webhook triggers

When an external system needs to alert you, bypass email and go straight to Jira. Set up a webhook and Notis will create an issue immediately with full context.

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

Critical alerts from external systems get buried in email, or you have to manually create Jira issues to track the incident.

  • Critical alerts create actionable Jira issues in seconds, not minutes or hours
  • Full context from the external system is captured in the issue
  • All incident tracking happens in Jira where your team is already working

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Jira to Notis (one-time setup).
  • 2Create an automation: "When a webhook request arrives with a body containing status=critical, create a Jira issue marked urgent."
  • 3Notis will provide you a unique webhook URL to give to your external system.
  • 4Have your external monitoring, error tracking, or notification system POST to that URL.
  • 5Test by sending a test webhook and verifying the Jira issue appears immediately.

Questions about this workflow

How do I format the webhook payload?

Notis accepts standard JSON. Tell Notis which fields contain the title (summary), description, and priority, and it'll map them to the Jira issue.

Can I route different webhooks to different projects or issue types?

Yes. Notis can route based on webhook source, fields in the payload, or custom logic.

What if the same alert comes in multiple times?

Notis can deduplicate or create a comment on an existing issue instead. You configure the behavior.
