Auto send a notification if the limit of WIP is near to be achieved

[Bruno Silva Ribeiro]

Dears,

I would like to create an automation that automatically send a notification for "developers" role when a limit of WIP is near to be achieved.

In this case, we've set a limit of WIP in "dev completed" state and I would like to advise every developer.

Appreciate your help.

Hello @Bruno Silva Ribeiro 

Good day, Welcome to Atlassian Community!!!!

This can be achieved using "Automation for Jira" Feature

Try below Rule:

Trigger: When issue is Transitioned "To Status" "dev completed"

Action: Lookup issues in JQL, write your query (mostly project = ABC and Status = "dev completed"), you can create your own based on your criterion

Condition: smart Value Condition
                  {{lookupIssues.size}} greater than (your WIP limit)

Action: Send Email

NOTE: You cannot send Email directly to specific role within a project, you will need to enter the emails or DL's of your Development team :(
