Create Breathe HR change requests from updated Jira issues
When a Jira employee request is updated with the needed change details, have Notis create a corresponding Breathe HR change request.
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
Create Employee Change Request
Tool to create a change request for an employee field. Use when you need to update employee information such as job title, department, or salary.
Why this helps
A request may become actionable after it is updated, leaving HR to notice the change and recreate it elsewhere.
- Use Jira updates as the cue to process a now-complete request.
- Keep the requested change details in the HR system.
- Reduce manual checking for changes to employee requests.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Jira and Breathe HR once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for updated employee requests.
- 3Tell Notis to create a Breathe HR change request when an employee change issue is updated with the employee and requested field details.
- 4Pick the Jira Updated Issue trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real Jira employee request and update it with the change details.
Questions about this workflow
What Jira updates trigger this?
The Jira Updated Issue event fires when an existing issue in the configured project changes. Instruct Notis to act only when the issue contains the employee change request details.
Does this directly edit the employee profile?
No. The Breathe HR action creates a change request for the employee field update.
