Automatically Label High-Priority Emails
When a high-priority Jira issue lands, Notis automatically labels related emails in Gmail so they stand out from regular inbox noise.
Trigger
New Issue
Fires when a new issue is created in the Jira project you configure. Only issues created in that project produce an event.
Action
Modify email labels
Adds and/or removes specified gmail labels for a message; ensure `message id` and all `label ids` are valid (use 'listlabels' for custom label ids).
Why this helps
High-priority emails get lost in a generic inbox because there's no automated way to highlight them based on Jira activity
- High-priority work visually stands out in your inbox
- No manual labeling—Notis handles it automatically
- Filter and focus on what matters most
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Jira and Gmail to Notis.
- 2Tell Notis: 'When a high-priority Jira issue is created, add a priority label to related emails.'
- 3Create or specify the Gmail label you want to use (e.g., 'Urgent' or 'Priority-1').
- 4Notis monitors new issues and applies labels automatically.
- 5Test by creating a priority issue and checking if emails are labeled.
Questions about this workflow
Can I use different labels for different priority levels?
Yes. Tell Notis to use 'P1' label for critical issues and 'P2' for high-priority, etc.
What if there are no emails matching the issue yet?
Notis waits until emails from the issue reporter or related team members arrive, then retroactively applies the label.
