Send a Bolt serial command from Jira

Turn a relevant Jira issue update into a defined serial command for the named Bolt device.

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

Bolt IoT Serial Write

Tool to send serial data to a bolt device. use when you need to transmit ascii data over uart after initializing uart with serialbegin.

Why this helps

A device command can be delayed while someone notices an issue update and repeats the instruction elsewhere.

  • Send a defined ASCII command after a relevant issue change.
  • Keep the command intent tied to the Jira issue.
  • Reduce manual handoffs for known device operations.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Jira and Bolt IoT once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, then New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3In one instruction, tell Notis which issue changes should send specified ASCII text to the named Bolt device, and note that UART must already be initialized.
  • 4Pick Jira Updated Issue as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real issue update and a safe, known command.

Questions about this workflow

What does Serial Write send?

It transmits ASCII data over UART to a Bolt device after UART has been initialized with serialbegin.

Can it decide what command to send?

Specify the command and the issue change that should prompt it in your instruction. The action does not initialize UART.
