Generate task list from email when label is added and create Jira Issues.
This is a Bardeen playbook. It's a pre-built automation template you can run in one-click to perform a repetitive task. Get started with our free Chrome extension.
How does this automation work?
Bardeen's workflow automation seamlessly transforms an organized inbox into a powerful task management system, bridging the gap between Gmail and Jira. When an email is labeled in Gmail, the playbook leverages OpenAI to summarize the content and generate actionable tasks, which are then turned into issues in Jira, ensuring that nothing falls through the cracks and your project stays on track.
Here's how this workflow converts Gmail messages into Jira issues:
- Step 1: Email Label Trigger - When a specific label is added to an email in Gmail, the playbook activates. Gmail's labeling system helps categorize your incoming messages for better organization.
- Step 2: Summarize Email Content - OpenAI is used to summarize the labeled email's content, making it easier to understand the context and identify tasks that need to be created.
- Step 3: Extract Task List - From the summary provided by OpenAI, a list of tasks is extracted to prepare for Jira issue creation.
- Step 4: Merge Text for Issue Creation - The extracted tasks are then concatenated into a format suitable for Jira issue descriptions.
- Step 5: Create Jira Issues - Each task is turned into a new issue within the specified Jira project, facilitating efficient task tracking and team collaboration.
How to run the playbook
Creating Jira issues from email threads can be a tedious and draining process that can sap your energy and productivity.
It can take hours to manually sift through your inbox, identify tasks, and then manually input them into your task management system. This playbook will automate this process and save you valuable time.
By setting up this automation to generate a task list from an email when a label is added, you can easily track and manage your Jira issues without having to input the information manually.
This automation converts emails into Jira issues when a label is added, and creates these issues in Jira. This ensures that all relevant information is captured and organized correctly.
