Keep EmailOctopus contacts current from Jira
Let a change to a subscriber request update the corresponding contact without a second round of data entry.
Trigger
Updated Issue
Action
Create or Update Contact
Creates a contact if absent or updates it if already in the list.
Why this helps
Contact details changed in a work ticket can remain stale in the mailing list until someone notices.
- Reflect issue changes in the corresponding contact.
- Avoid duplicate contacts by using the create or update action.
- Skip updates when the issue lacks an email address or valid consent.
Setup

- 1Connect Jira and EmailOctopus once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation and describe which issue details should update a contact.
- 3Pick the Jira Updated Issue trigger for the relevant project.
- 4Choose where Notis should send run reports.
- 5Test with one real issue containing an email address and an eligible consent status.
Questions about this workflow
Can this action create a contact if one does not exist?
Yes. Create or Update Contact creates the contact if it is missing and updates it if it already exists.
Does an issue update prove marketing consent?
No. Tell Notis to rely on an explicit consent value in the issue and skip the action if that value is absent or withdrawn.
