Why this helps

When teams create new Jira projects, founders forget to set up corresponding calendars, leading to scattered deadline tracking and missed project milestones.

  • Automatically organize calendars to match your Jira project structure
  • Ensure new projects have dedicated calendar spaces from inception
  • Streamline project onboarding without manual calendar setup
  • Keep all stakeholders aligned on project deadlines

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Jira and Google Calendar in Notis Integrations.
  • 2Create an automation: 'When a new Jira project is created, set up a Google Calendar with the same project name.'
  • 3Set the trigger to 'New Project' in Jira.
  • 4Choose your notification channel to receive confirmations.
  • 5Test by creating a new Jira project and verify the calendar appears in your Google Calendar list.

Questions about this workflow

Can Notis name the calendar with a specific naming convention?

Yes. You can specify your naming pattern in the automation prompt, such as '[Project] - Deadlines' or 'PROJ: Project Name'.

Will Jira and Google Calendar calendars stay synchronized?

The calendar is created once. You'll use other automations to add events to it (e.g., when issues are created or updated).

Can team members access these calendars?

Yes. After Notis creates the calendar, you can share it with your team via Google Calendar's sharing settings.
