Keep Apollo contact records current as Jira work changes

When a Jira update includes a meaningful change to a person's details, carry that update into their Apollo record.

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

Update Apollo contact

Updates specified attributes of an existing apollo.io contact, identified by `contact id`; requires at least one other attribute to be provided for modification.

Why this helps

People's contact context changes during delivery work, and busy teams can leave Apollo records behind.

  • Reflect relevant contact changes from Jira in Apollo.
  • Limit updates to information present in the issue change.
  • Reduce record maintenance after project conversations.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Jira and Apollo in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3In one instruction, tell Notis which supplied Jira changes should update an existing Apollo contact and how to identify that contact.
  • 4Pick the Jira Updated Issue trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real issue update that includes contact information.

Questions about this workflow

Can this update an existing contact without a contact identifier?

Notis needs enough information from Jira or your instruction to identify the Apollo contact. Ask it to report when it cannot confidently match a person.

Will it update every field in Apollo?

The action requires at least one attribute to change. Describe which available information should be updated; do not assume Jira supplies fields it does not contain.
