Route New GitHub Issues Straight Into Jira

Every new GitHub issue or error is enriched with its key details and pushed to Jira so the right people see it immediately — no more issues sitting unnoticed until someone checks the dashboard.

  1. 1

    Step 1 — Trigger on new issue

    Add the GitHub trigger (or webhook) for new issues/events. For GitHub, filter to the labels or severity you care about.

  2. 2

    Step 2 — Extract the essentials

    Add a Set node capturing title, severity, a short description and the link back to GitHub.

  3. 3

    Step 3 — Prioritise (optional)

    Add an If/Switch on severity so critical items page a channel while the rest go to the normal queue.

  4. 4

    Step 4 — Post to Jira

    Add a Jira node to create a tracked item with the title, description and source link.

Frequently asked questions

Can I avoid duplicate pings?

De-duplicate on the GitHub issue ID before Step 4, and for recurring errors set a cooldown so a flapping issue doesn't spam Jira.

Two-way sync possible?

This is one-way by default. For two-way, add a second workflow that listens to Jira changes and writes status back to GitHub.
