Alert Your Team to Overdue Work Automatically
Your spreadsheet tracks what's overdue, but if the team isn't checking it daily, overdue work goes unnoticed. Notis watches your backlog for overdue items and sends Jira notifications automatically, so the team knows what's urgent.
Trigger
Table Query Result Changed
Triggers when the result set of a saved table query changes in Google Sheets. Detects rows added, removed, or updated in the query output. This trigger monitors the result of a SQL query against a Google Sheets table and fires when changes are detected.
Action
Send Notification for Issue
Sends a customized email notification for a jira issue.
Why this helps
Items are overdue in your tracking spreadsheet, but the team doesn't know until you send a reminder email or bring it up in standup—adding friction to priority conversations.
- Overdue work becomes visible immediately
- Reduces need for verbal reminders
- Enables proactive intervention
- Team stays focused on urgent items

Questions about this workflow
How often will notifications be sent?
By default, Notis sends once per overdue item per day. You can adjust frequency in the automation settings.
Can I exclude certain items from notifications?
Yes. Mark excluded items as 'ignore' or 'accepted late' in the spreadsheet, and Notis won't notify about them.
Will this notify the assignee directly?
Notis sends notifications via Jira's system. Assignees can configure their notification settings in Jira.
