See signing progress from a Jira update
Use an issue change as a cue to fetch the related Dropbox Sign request and make signer status easier to review.
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
Get Signature Request
Retrieves the current status and complete details of a signature request by ID. Use this action to: - Check if signers have viewed, signed, or declined the request - Get signer information and signature timestamps - Access form field responses and custom field values - Retrieve URLs for document downloads and management - Monitor signature request progress and completion status Returns detailed information including signer names, emails, signing status, custom fields, response data, attachments, and signing options. Handles errors gracefully with structured error responses for invalid or non-existent signature request IDs.
Why this helps
Signing progress is easy to lose track of when request status lives outside the Jira issue people already check.
- Surface the current request details when a Jira issue changes.
- Reduce manual switching between Jira and Dropbox Sign.
- Make signer progress easier to include in a run report.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Jira and Dropbox Sign once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to retrieve the Dropbox Sign request associated with an updated Jira issue and summarize its current status.
- 4Pick Jira Updated Issue as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real updated issue that includes its related Dropbox Sign request ID.
Questions about this workflow
What should be present on the Jira issue?
Notis needs enough information to identify the related Dropbox Sign request, such as its request ID. If the issue lacks that identifier, supply it in a way Notis can access.
Does this trigger on Jira comments?
No. Updated Issue fires on issue changes and does not fire on comment activity.
Does this workflow send a reminder to signers?
No. It retrieves request details for Notis to summarize. The listed Dropbox Sign actions do not include a signer reminder action.
