Assign Issue

Assigns a jira issue to a user, default assignee, or unassigns; supports email/name lookup.

Why this helps

Creating a task and assigning it means two clicks in Jira (or remembering people's account names). Easier to just text them—but then it's not tracked.

  • Create and delegate work in one step
  • Team members see assigned work in Jira, not lost in chat
  • Clear ownership from the moment of creation

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect your Telegram and Jira integrations to Notis.
  • 2Request an automation: 'When I send a message like @john fix the button, create a Jira task and assign it to John'.
  • 3Notis sets the trigger to 'New Message Received' and learns your team members' Telegram handles.
  • 4Choose your Notis notification channel for confirmation.
  • 5Test by tagging someone in a message—Notis creates the task and assigns it instantly.

Questions about this workflow

How does Notis know who to assign to?

You can mention someone by Telegram handle (e.g., @john) or Jira name, and Notis matches them automatically.

What if the person isn't available?

You can set a fallback assignee, or let the task stay unassigned and adjust in Jira later.

Can I set priority or other fields?

Yes. Notis can parse your message for priority keywords (e.g., 'URGENT: fix the button') and populate Jira fields automatically.
