Creating SLA Notifications

This page is about Time to SLA for Jira Cloud. Using Jira On-Prem? Click the On-Prem button above.

Time to SLA provides a myriad of simple ways to track your SLAs, but you may still need a bit more assistance.

You may want to warn your team before an SLA is breached, for example, to get them to work on that issue and keep your service quality high. If an SLA is breached, you may also want to remind people after the date and keep reminding them until they complete the task.

Time to SLA can send notifications to the right people at the right time. Click the bell icon on the SLAs page to Before diving into the functionalities, let’s take a look at the Notifications page:
