Instant Workload Visibility with Auto-Generated Charts
Stop guessing who is overloaded. Charts build automatically as new issues arrive, giving you and your team real-time visibility into workload distribution and capacity.
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
Create Chart in Google Sheets
Create a chart in a google sheets spreadsheet using the specified data range and chart type.
Why this helps
Without clear workload visibility, you can't load-balance effectively. Team members seem busy but you can't see the bottleneck. Ad-hoc burndown charts take time to create and quickly become outdated.
- See workload distribution at a glance
- Identify over-allocated team members before they burn out
- Make data-driven assignment decisions
- Keep charts current without manual updates
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Jira and Google Sheets to Notis
- 2Create an automation: 'Show me workload by assignee in a chart whenever a new issue arrives'
- 3Select the trigger: New Issue from your Jira project
- 4Notis creates or updates the chart automatically using the issue data
- 5Set up notifications so the team sees new capacity insights
- 6Test with a few new issues and review the generated charts
Questions about this workflow
What types of charts can Notis create?
Bar charts for workload by assignee, pie charts for priority distribution, and trend charts for issue velocity. You choose the visualization that helps your team most.
Do charts update automatically or only when new issues arrive?
Charts update whenever a new issue is created. For scheduled updates (e.g., daily refreshes), you can use a separate cron-based automation.
Can I customize the chart title or legend?
Yes. Include your preferences in the automation prompt: 'Create a chart titled "Team Capacity" with series for each team member.'

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Jira to Google Sheets. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
