Keep Jira references current when OneDrive files move

A renamed or relocated deliverable should not leave its Jira issue pointing to stale context.

Trigger

Item Moved or Renamed

Triggers when a file or folder is moved to a different path or renamed in OneDrive. Includes both old and new path/name data in the payload.

Action

Edit Issue

Updates an existing jira issue with field values and operations. supports direct field parameters (summary, description, assignee, priority, etc.) that are merged with the fields parameter. direct parameters take precedence.

Why this helps

A file move can break the trail between the work in Jira and the document people need to finish it.

  • Reflect the file's new name or path in Jira.
  • Use the event's old and new path details to identify the change.
  • Make the current deliverable easier to find.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect OneDrive and Jira once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3Tell Notis to find the related Jira issue and update its document reference with the new OneDrive path.
  • 4Pick the OneDrive Item Moved or Renamed trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real file move or rename.
