Automatically Create Release Versions in Jira on Schedule
Release versions are created and dated automatically. Your roadmap stays current without admin overhead.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Create Version
Creates a new version for releases or milestones in a jira project.
Why this helps
Creating release versions in Jira is manual busywork that gets forgotten. Your roadmap falls behind, and release planning becomes reactive.
- Automatic version creation on your release cadence
- Roadmap stays current without manual intervention
- Clear release timeline in Jira
- Faster release planning
- Consistent version naming and dating
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notis and Jira.
- 2Create a scheduled automation: 'Every [week/month], create a new Jira version named [pattern] with a release date [X days from now].'
- 3Notis auto-generates names like 'v1.2.3' or 'Release 2025-07-15' based on your pattern.
- 4Test by running once manually to verify the version is created with the right name and date.
Questions about this workflow
Can I use a custom naming pattern for versions?
Yes. For example: 'v[YEAR].[MONTH].[INCREMENT]' creates v2025.07.1. You define the pattern.
How far out should I set the release date?
You specify it. For example: 'Create the version with a release date 30 days from today' or 'the last Friday of the month.'
Can I add version descriptions or goals automatically?
Yes. You can include a static description or pull it from a linked Google Docs file that outlines the release goals.

Recurring trigger

Add Attachment
Uploads and attaches a file to a jira issue.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Add Comment
Adds a comment using atlassian document format (adf) for rich text to an existing jira issue.
Comment Added (Docs/Sheets/Slides)
Triggers when a new comment is added to Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides.
Add Watcher to Issue
Adds a user to an issue's watcher list by account id.

Assign Issue
Assigns a jira issue to a user, default assignee, or unassigns; supports email/name lookup.
File Deleted or Trashed

Bulk Create Issues
Creates multiple jira issues (up to 50 per call) with full feature support including markdown, assignee resolution, and priority handling.
File Shared (Permissions Added)
Triggers when new sharing permissions are granted to a file or folder. Uses Drive's `changes.list` endpoint with inline `permissions` in the `fields` mask so each change carries the file's current permission set provider-atomically. We diff that against `seen_permission_keys` to identify newly added grants. Drive page tokens are the primary cursor; if Drive rejects a stored token, the trigger raises `PollingTriggerError` without clearing state rather than silently re-baselining and dropping events. Limitation: truly ephemeral permissions (added and revoked between two polls without any other file modification in between) are not detected. Drive Activity API would catch those but requires an additional OAuth scope and a different payload contract.
Create Issue
Creates a new jira issue (e.g., bug, task, story) in a specified project.
File Updated
Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
Link Issues
Links two jira issues using a specified link type with optional comment.
