Refresh a Bible verse search after a Jira issue update

When a Jira issue changes, rerun a scripture search from its current topic so the latest context is reflected in your report.

Trigger

Updated Issue

Fires when an existing issue is changed in the Jira project you configure — for example its status, assignee, or any other field on the issue is updated. Only issues in that project produce an event. It does not fire on comment activity: adding, editing, or deleting a comment on an issue will not produce an event from this trigger.

Action

Search Verses

Tool to search for verses containing a specified query within a version.

Why this helps

A revised issue can make an earlier passage search stale, leaving you to remember what changed and search again.

  • Revisit the scripture search when the issue is updated.
  • Use the issue's current text as context for the search.
  • Review new results in a run report without manually restarting your research.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Jira and Api bible once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create a named automation in Notis.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to search Api bible for verses related to the updated issue's current topic and summarize the results.
  • 4Pick Jira's Updated Issue trigger for the project you configure.
  • 5Choose where run reports go and test with one real issue update.

Questions about this workflow

Does this trigger run for Jira comments?

No. Jira's Updated Issue trigger does not fire for comment activity. It fires when an existing issue in the configured project is changed.

Will the search compare old and new issue text?

The listed trigger is described as firing on an issue change. A comparison requires the prior and current values to be available in the trigger data; otherwise, ask Notis to search using the current issue text.
