Get instant WhatsApp alerts when you're assigned a Jira issue
Stop checking Jira for new work. Notis sends instant WhatsApp messages to whoever is assigned, so no task slips through the cracks.
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
Send message
Send a text message to a whatsapp number. note: the message will reflect on the recipient's phone number only if they have texted first.
Why this helps
Checking Jira repeatedly wastes cognitive energy; assigned team members often miss notifications buried in email or Slack, leading to delayed starts and broken commitments.
- Assignees see work instantly on their phone
- No email check-in loop; one message equals one notification
- Reduces time-to-first-action for urgent work
- Team members stay in flow without context-switching
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Jira and WhatsApp to Notis via the portal (one-time setup).
- 2Ask Notis: "When a new Jira issue is created, send a WhatsApp message to the assigned person."
- 3Notis will create an automation that watches for new issues and sends the assignee a plain-language summary.
- 4Choose Telegram, WhatsApp, or email as your automation report channel.
- 5Test by creating a sample Jira issue and assigning it to verify the message arrives.
Questions about this workflow
Will every new issue trigger a message?
Yes, unless you refine the automation to target specific projects or issue types. Ask Notis to add filters like 'only urgent issues' or 'only in the Product project.'
Can I customize the message text?
Notis uses AI to compose natural, helpful messages from issue details. You can refine the prompt (e.g., 'Include the deadline if present' or 'Keep it brief for quick reads').
What if someone doesn't have WhatsApp?
Notis can send to email or Telegram instead. Just tell Notis your preference when creating the automation.

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.
