Clear merged localization branches when Jira confirms completion
Close the loop on completed release or feature localization by removing its obsolete Crowdin branch after the merge is recorded.
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
Delete Branch
Tool to delete a specific branch from a crowdin project. use when you need to remove an obsolete branch after it's fully merged.
Why this helps
Finished branches accumulate because cleanup requires someone to remember which work has fully merged.
- Reduce clutter from completed localization branches.
- Tie branch cleanup to a clear completion signal.
- Keep cleanup focused on branches identified by the Jira work.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Jira and Crowdin once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation for completed branch cleanup.
- 3Tell Notis to delete the identified Crowdin branch only when an updated Jira issue confirms it is fully merged and no longer needed.
- 4Pick the Jira Updated Issue trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real completion update and a branch that is safe to remove.
Questions about this workflow
Will a comment saying merged trigger this?
No. The Updated Issue event does not fire on comment activity. Record the completion in an issue field that changes.
What should the instruction require before deletion?
Require clear merge completion, the exact Crowdin project and branch identity, and confirmation that the branch is obsolete.
