Reconfigure BotStar when a Jira issue arrives

Start a widget configuration refresh when issue intake changes what the support flow needs.

Trigger

New Issue

Fires when a new issue is created in the Jira project you configure. Only issues created in that project produce an event.

Action

Livechat boot

Tool to reinitialize the live chat widget with provided data. use after initial load to reset or update widget configuration.

Why this helps

Issue-driven support changes can leave a widget running with outdated configuration until someone remembers to refresh it.

  • Prompt a supported widget reinitialization when an issue arrives.
  • Keep configuration details in the automation instruction.
  • Reduce missed widget setup follow-ups.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Jira and BotStar once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create a named automation in Notis.
  • 3In one instruction, tell Notis when to reinitialize the BotStar widget and provide the needed configuration data.
  • 4Pick the Jira New Issue trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real issue and verify the widget configuration.

Questions about this workflow

Does the issue automatically provide all boot data?

No. The action uses provided data. Include the required configuration in the instruction or context.

Can this simply update user details?

No. Widget boot reinitializes widget configuration. Updating details in the current session is a separate action.
