Integrating mobile app Notifications with Jira for Faster Team Updates

[Mia Smith]

Hi everyone,

I’m exploring ways to streamline real-time communication between my team and Jira. Email notifications sometimes get overlooked, so I was wondering if anyone here has tried integrating mobile app for issue updates, sprint reminders, or ticket notifications?

Is there a recommended plugin, automation setup, or API method that works reliably for this? I’d love to know how others manage quick Jira alerts through mobile app or similar messaging tools.

Thanks in advance for your insights!

Using Atlassian Automation + Webhook → Custom Mobile App

If you want to take it to the next level—for example, sending alerts to an internal mobile app—use Webhooks + Jira API.

Basic integration example:

Create a rule in Jira Automation:

Trigger: Issue transitioned / updated

Action: “Send web request”

Configure:

• URL: https://api.yourmobileapp.com/notify

• Method: POST

• Headers:

  • Content-Type: application/json

• Body:
  

  {
    "issueKey": "{{issue.key}}",
    "summary": "{{issue.summary}}",
    "status": "{{issue.status.name}}",
    "assignee": "{{issue.assignee.displayName}}"
  }

  The mobile app (or an intermediary service like Firebase, Zapier, or n8n) processes the notification and sends it via push notification to the users' phones.
