Refresh population estimates behind active Jira decisions
Keep population context close to active research by refreshing estimates for the places your Jira work is tracking.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Get Population Estimates
Tool to retrieve population estimates program (pep) data for a specified vintage and dataset. use when you need population or demographic estimates for specific geographies.
Why this helps
Teams can keep revisiting the same geographic assumptions without knowing whether the population estimates need a fresh look.
- Review active Jira research on a recurring schedule without waiting for an issue update.
- Retrieve population estimates for the geographies represented in that work.
- See unresolved vintage, dataset, or geography details in the run report.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Jira and Census bureau once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, then New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Describe in one instruction how to find active Jira research and retrieve population estimates for its stated geographies, reporting missing inputs.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real research issue that names a geography and the required estimate context.
Questions about this workflow
Does Census population estimates choose a geography automatically?
No. The geography and required vintage or dataset need to come from the Jira work or be specified in your instruction.
Why use a schedule instead of an issue trigger?
A schedule can review active research even when no Jira issue changes. Choose a cadence that matches how often your team wants a refresh.
