One webhook payload, up to 50 new Jira tasks. Batch creation without script writing.
Trigger

Action
Bulk Create Issues
Creates multiple jira issues (up to 50 per call) with full feature support including markdown, assignee resolution, and priority handling.
Why this helps
Migrating tasks from another tool or importing a batch of work items requires custom tooling or manual entry, slowing project setup.
- Create up to 50 issues from one webhook
- Automate bulk migrations without code
- Faster project setup
- Reduce manual data entry
- Flexible payload structure support
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notis and Jira.
- 2Create a webhook automation: 'When you receive a webhook with a list of tasks, create a Jira issue for each one.'
- 3Notis generates a webhook URL and tells you the expected JSON structure.
- 4Send a test payload with 5-10 sample tasks, verify they create correctly, then scale to your full batch.
Questions about this workflow
What JSON structure should the webhook payload have?
Notis is flexible. You can send an array of objects, nested structures, or CSV data in the payload. Tell Notis your format and it adapts.
Can I set different issue types or priorities based on the payload?
Yes. For example: 'If priority is high, create a Bug; if priority is low, create a Task.'
What if some issues in the batch are invalid?
Notis validates each issue before creating it. Invalid ones are skipped and reported so you can fix them and retry.

Bulk Create Issues

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.
