Automate Everyday Tasks in Jira: A practical, no-code approach for Jira admins and power users to automate everyday processes

This book has a lot of great info that any Jira Administrator should know. I have been doing it for about 8 years and a lot of this book I ended up already knowing. But there were a few things in this book had some very helpful tips that ended up being very helpful. Even though I knew most of it, this book gave me enough tips that I did find it very helpful and worth it. Can be a great book to refer back to.

Likes:Gareth Cantrell has done an outstanding job in writing this book in simple and easy to use terms. This book will benefit any role within any organization regarding the automation of Jira work. The book starts out with an explanation of Jira Automation terminology and definitions and applies this to Jira Issue automation. Real world examples are given with code snippet downloads available. Later chapters do a great job covering Automated Notifications, External Systems, Software Projects and DEV OPS Tools. Our organization recently began using Jira Tools as part of our IT Digital Transformation. I currently work as our Portfolio Management Lead and Tool Owner/Admin. The timing of this book was perfect for us!Dislikes:There weren't too many dislikes which is why I gave the review an overall 5. I do wish there were more screenshots and illustrations showing some of the great explanations around how to Automate the work.Thanks, TomIT Portfolio Management Lead and Jira Admin
