Share Jira Delivery Updates in Canny
Make shipped work easier to announce by turning selected Jira updates into Canny changelog entries.
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 Changelog Entry
Tool to create and optionally publish a new changelog entry. use when you need to add a product update record, control publish timing, and notify users. example: "create changelog entry titled 'version 1.2' with details '...' and publish immediately.".
Why this helps
Completed work can be easy to overlook when announcing product changes takes a separate manual step.
- Reduce the gap between delivery and customer communication.
- Create a changelog draft from relevant Jira context.
- Keep product announcements tied to shipped work.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Jira and Canny once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation from Automations, then New Automation.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to create a Canny changelog entry only when a Jira issue update indicates a customer-facing delivery, using available issue details.
- 4Pick Jira Updated Issue as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real Jira issue update that represents shipped work.
Questions about this workflow
Will every Jira issue update create a changelog entry?
No. The instruction should limit entries to updates that indicate a customer-facing delivery. Jira Updated Issue fires for issue field changes, so specify the relevant condition in plain language.
Will the changelog entry publish immediately?
The action can create and optionally publish an entry. State in your instruction whether to publish or leave it unpublished for review.
