Discover CommCare reports from Jira work

When a reporting request changes, get the available CommCare report names back into the workstream quickly.

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

List Reports

Tool to retrieve available reports configured in a CommCare project. Use when you need to discover what reports exist before downloading report data via the Download Report Data API.

Why this helps

Teams can lose time asking around which CommCare reports exist before they can plan a data request.

  • Discover configured report options without manually opening CommCare first.
  • Give the Jira request owner a concise list to review.
  • Avoid assuming that a requested report already exists.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Jira and CommCare once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to list configured CommCare reports when an issue is updated to request report discovery, then summarize the results for the requester.
  • 4Pick Jira Updated Issue as the trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real reporting issue and confirm the available report list is useful.

Questions about this workflow

Does this download report data?

No. The action lists reports configured in the CommCare project. Downloading report data is outside the allowed action for this workflow.

Does every Jira edit run report discovery?

The Jira Updated Issue event fires when an issue in the configured project changes. Describe the intended request context in your instruction, and verify behavior with a real example.
