Bulk Create Issues

Creates multiple jira issues (up to 50 per call) with full feature support including markdown, assignee resolution, and priority handling.

Why this helps

You build an epic in Linear with 20 child issues, then spend an hour manually creating Jira tickets. By the time you're done, Linear's already updated.

  • Sync entire epic structure in seconds, not hours
  • No manual re-entry of 20+ child issues
  • Both systems stay in lockstep from day one
  • Scale planning without scaling manual work

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Jira to Notis
  • 2Set up automation: 'When a Linear epic is created with child issues, automatically create the epic and all child issues as Jira tickets in bulk.'
  • 3Specify how to map Linear child issues to Jira subtasks or linked issues
  • 4Create a test Linear epic with 3-5 child issues and verify Jira creates them all

Questions about this workflow

Can Notis handle more than 50 issues per epic?

Jira's bulk-create action supports up to 50 per call. For larger epics, Notis batches them automatically.

Does this preserve the hierarchy—are Jira issues subtasks or linked?

You choose in your prompt: 'create Jira subtasks' or 'link as related issues'—whichever fits your workflow.

What if some child issues already exist in Jira?

Notis checks for duplicates before creating. It only creates new ones and links existing ones to the epic.
