Soooo. . . . This blog doesn't have anything to do with Just Add+ — but rather an update for one of our other apps:Notification Assistant for Jira - Email.
If Jira’s built-in notifications ever felt limiting, Notification Assistant was built to make them smarter, more customizable, and far more effective for cross-team communication.
It helps teams:
Create better Jira email notifications based on the exact events you care about
→ Define triggers using fields, issue types, or workflows — no coding required.
Tailor emails to different recipients — without spamming everyone
→ Set unique rules per audience (assignees, external teams, customers) to control who sees what.
Build clear, actionable updates people actually read (and act on)
→ Use templates with rich formatting, links, and key details to make every email count.
Cut through the noise while making sure critical work gets seen
→ Eliminate generic notifications and send only what’s relevant, when it matters.
Keep projects moving faster by making sure the right people know what’s happening — at exactly the right time
→ Reduce miscommunication, speed up handoffs, and stay ahead of blockers.
You don’t need to write scripts, configure complex automations, or worry about usage limits — Notification Assistant works independently of Jira’s automation rules and delivers exactly what your team needs.It gives you full control over who gets notified, when, and how — right from Jira — giving your team more clarity, fewer missed steps, and smoother collaboration.
What’s New: Data Residency Support
Now, there’s even better news:Notification Assistant for Jira - Email now supports Data Residency.
Have you ever had to explain where your data is stored to someone — and realized "in the cloud somewhere" wasn’t exactly the reassuring answer they were looking for?
Well...With Notification Assistant for Jira, you can now give a clear and confident answer.
With Data Residency support, you can control not just what gets sent — but where your app’s operational data is physically stored.
Before we dive deeper, here’s the important part:

It’s a small change behind the scenes — but a major win for teams that need to clear internal security reviews, meet compliance requirements, or get stakeholder approval before rolling out new tools.
