Notify Team Members When Assigned New Jira Tasks
Assigned a task? Your teammate deserves to know immediately, not when they next check Jira. This automation sends direct Telegram alerts for new assignments.
Trigger
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.
Action
Send Message
Send a text message to a telegram chat using the bot api.
Why this helps
Team members miss assignments because they don't regularly check Jira, or they see the notification too late and forget what they need to work on.
- Faster task pickup
- Fewer missed assignments
- Reduced task-discovery time
- Improved team coordination
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Jira and Telegram to Notis in the portal.
- 2Create an automation by telling Notis: 'When someone is assigned a new issue in Jira, send them a direct message on Telegram.'
- 3Select Jira's 'Updated Issue' trigger (assignment changes) and Telegram as your action channel.
- 4Test by assigning an issue to a team member and verify their Telegram DM arrives instantly.
Questions about this workflow
Does this send direct messages or channel messages?
You choose in your prompt. You can send to a personal DM or a team channel where the assigned person has notifications enabled.
What if someone isn't in Telegram?
The automation will create a notification attempt in Telegram. You may want to set up a fallback notification method for team members who don't use Telegram.
Can I customize the message for specific roles?
Yes. Your plain-language prompt can specify custom wording: 'When a frontend issue is assigned, send a Telegram message saying [your custom text].'
