Move Feature Requests from Jira to Canny
Capture a feature request in Jira and let Notis carry it into Canny for product discussion.
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
Create Post
Tool to create a new post on a board. use when you have the boardid and userid and need to submit new feedback.
Why this helps
Feature requests can get stranded in Jira while the team collects and prioritizes feedback in Canny.
- Reduce duplicate entry between issue tracking and feedback collection.
- Give product teams a Canny post to review and discuss.
- Keep the feedback handoff close to the original Jira request.
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 feedback post from each new Jira issue that represents a feature request, using the available issue details.
- 4Pick Jira New Issue as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real feature request issue.
Questions about this workflow
Will every new Jira issue become a Canny post?
Tell Notis to create posts only for issues that represent feature requests. Jira's New Issue event fires for new issues in the configured project.
What does Canny need to create a post?
The action requires a board ID and user ID. Make those available to Notis through your connected account or instruction context.
