Notis

Auto-generate weekly sprint tasks from your calendar

Your calendar already shows what you're committing to. Let Notis read it every Monday and create Jira tasks for your sprint automatically—no planning meetings needed.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Create Issue

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

Why this helps

Sprint planning takes time even though your calendar already shows exactly what you're blocked for. You end up manually re-entering your calendar blocks into Jira.

  • Sprint planning is instant—Notis does it based on your real calendar
  • Never lose a time commitment because you forgot to add it to the sprint
  • More time for actual work, less time in planning meetings

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect your Google Calendar and Jira to Notis.
  • 2Create an automation: "Every Monday morning at 9 AM, read my calendar for this week and create Jira tasks for each time block over 1 hour."
  • 3Specify which calendars to read (Work, Personal, etc.) and any keywords to filter on.
  • 4Choose your notification channel for the weekly summary.
  • 5Test by manually triggering the automation and reviewing the generated sprint tasks.

Questions about this workflow

What if I don't want every calendar block to become a sprint task?

Tell Notis to filter: 'Only create tasks for blocks that include the word Project, or are on my Work calendar, or are longer than 2 hours.'

Can I exclude certain recurring events?

Yes. You can blacklist standup meetings, lunch blocks, or other recurring events that shouldn't auto-create tasks.

What if a task already exists for a calendar block?

Notis checks for existing linked issues and won't create duplicates. It'll note this in the weekly summary.
