FAQ

Questions about Slack + Jira.

Why use a custom Jira + Slack workflow over the Jira Slack app?
Jira's app does basic notifications. Custom workflows let you route by project + labels, batch into digests, AI-summarize issues, post review reminders, and more.
How do I post Jira issue events to Slack?
Jira Issue Created or Updated (filtered to specific events) → Slack Send Message with title, status, assignee, link. Pick channel by project or label.
Can I DM the Jira issue assignee in Slack?
Yes. Lookup jira_account_id → slack_user_id. After Jira Assigned trigger, Slack Send DM with issue context. Faster than waiting for Jira's own notification.
How do I post stale Jira PRs to Slack?
Scheduled daily: Jira Search Issues "status: 'In Review' AND updated < -3d" → Slack Send Message in #review-queue with the list. Surface stale work for engineering managers.
Can I AI-summarize Jira sprint progress in Slack?
Yes. Scheduled Friday: fetch sprint issues + statuses → Claude/OpenAI generates 5-bullet summary → Slack Send Message in #engineering. Weekly standup writes itself.
How do I avoid Slack-channel noise from Jira?
Filter Jira triggers to significant events (created, transitioned to specific states, sprint changes). Skip per-comment, per-field-change. Aggregate via daily digests.
