Turn Outlook emails into Bitbucket issues
Keep requests from disappearing in your inbox.
Trigger
New Outlook Message
Triggered when a new message is received in the Outlook mailbox.
Action
Create an issue
Creates a new issue in a bitbucket repository, setting the authenticated user as reporter; ensures assignee (if provided) has repository access, and that any specified milestone, version, or component ids exist.
Why this helps
Important work arrives by email and gets buried before it reaches the engineering queue.
- Capture requests while context is fresh
- Reduce manual issue triage
- Give engineers a searchable work queue

Questions about this workflow
