Clarify what done means for new Jira work
Give incoming issues a Coda doc for expected outcomes and edge cases before implementation details get lost in the rush.
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 doc
Creates a new coda doc, optionally copying an existing doc. note that creating a doc requires you to be a doc maker in the applicable workspace (or be auto-promoted to one).
Why this helps
Work can take longer when expected behavior and edge cases are unclear at the start.
- Make expected outcomes easier to discuss.
- Collect edge cases and unanswered questions.
- Create a repeatable starting point for issue refinement.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Jira and Coda once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation from Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to create an acceptance criteria doc for each new Jira issue with available details and sections for outcomes, edge cases, and questions.
- 4Pick the Jira New Issue trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real issue and check that the doc helps clarify expected behavior.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis invent acceptance criteria?
No. The doc can provide a structure and include available issue details. People should confirm criteria that are not already supplied.
Will updates to the issue edit this doc?
This workflow creates a doc when a new issue is created. It does not specify ongoing synchronization.
