See Your Team's Workload Distribution Weekly
Every Monday, Notis logs how many open issues each team member has in Jira into a Notion database. Spot who's overloaded and rebalance before the week starts.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Insert row database
Creates a new page (row) in a specified notion database.
Why this helps
You have no clear view of who's drowning and who has capacity. Work piles up on key people while others look available, creating burnout and waste.
- Visibility: see open issue counts per person in one Notion row.
- Proactive rebalancing: address overload before someone breaks.
- Fair distribution: data shows who's actually carrying the load.
- Historical trends: weekly rows let you spot chronic imbalances.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Jira and Notion to Notis.
- 2Tell Notis: 'Every Monday at 8am, create a Notion database row showing the count of open issues assigned to each team member in Jira.'
- 3Set the trigger: 'Recurring schedule' (weekly, Monday, 8am).
- 4Choose your notification channel.
- 5Review the first row to ensure it accurately reflects your team's issue counts in Jira.
Questions about this workflow
Should this include only open issues or all issues assigned to each person?
Tell Notis your preference: 'Count open and In Progress issues' or 'Count everything except Closed.' Notis filters accordingly.
What if someone is on leave that week?
The automation counts work as normal. You'd see the spike manually and can note it in Notion, or create a separate rule to exclude people on leave.
Can I filter to specific projects only?
Yes. Tell Notis: 'Only count open issues from the Backend and Infrastructure projects.' It will narrow the workload snapshot to the projects that matter most.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Jira to Notion. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Jira triggers
Notion actions
New Issue
Fires when a new issue is created in the Jira project you configure. Only issues created in that project produce an event.
Add multiple content blocks (bulk, user-friendly)
Efficiently adds multiple standard content blocks to a notion page in a single api call with automatic markdown parsing. the 'content' field in notionrichtext blocks now automatically detects and parses markdown formatting including headers (# ## ###), bold (**text**), italic (*text*), strikethrough (~~text~~), inline code (`code`), links ([text](url)), and more. ideal for bulk content creation, ai agents, and replacing multiple individual add page content calls. supports automatic text formatting, content splitting, and up to 100 blocks per request.
New Project
Triggered when a new project is added in Jira
Add content to Notion page
Deprecated: appends a single content block to a notion page or a parent block (must be page, toggle, to-do, bulleted/numbered list, callout, or quote); invoke repeatedly to add multiple blocks.
Updated Issue
Fires when an existing issue is changed in the Jira project you configure — for example its status, assignee, or any other field on the issue is updated. Only issues in that project produce an event. It does not fire on comment activity: adding, editing, or deleting a comment on an issue will not produce an event from this trigger.
Append complex blocks (advanced, full control)
Appends complex blocks with full notion block structure to a parent block or page. use for advanced scenarios requiring precise control: code blocks, tables, embeds, nested children within blocks, or when working with pre-built notion block objects. requires full notion api block schema - use add multiple page content for simpler content creation.
Archive Notion Page
Archives (moves to trash) or unarchives (restores from trash) a specified notion page.
Create comment
Adds a comment to a notion page (via `parent page id`) or to an existing discussion thread (via `discussion id`); cannot create new discussion threads on specific blocks (inline comments).
Create Notion Database
Creates a new notion database as a subpage under a specified parent page with a defined properties schema; use this action exclusively for creating new databases.
Create Notion page
Creates a new empty page in a notion workspace.
Delete a block
Archives a notion block, page, or database using its id, which sets its 'archived' property to true (like moving to "trash" in the ui) and allows it to be restored later.
