Reflect WhatsApp escalations in Linear priority

Help urgent customer or team escalations stand out in Linear without interrupting your chat flow.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Update issue

Updates an existing linear issue using its `issue id`; requires at least one other attribute for modification, and all provided entity ids (for state, assignee, labels, etc.) must be valid.

Why this helps

An urgent message can arrive in WhatsApp while its related Linear issue still looks routine.

  • Make explicit escalations easier to spot in the work queue.
  • Keep priority changes connected to the conversation that prompted them.
  • Reduce manual triage when urgent reports arrive in chat.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect 2chat and Linear once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation from a channel or in Automations, New Automation in the portal.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to identify explicit escalations in incoming 2chat conversations, find the related Linear issue, and update its priority only when both the match and requested urgency are clear.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger for the automation and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real escalation conversation and its matching Linear issue.

Questions about this workflow

Will Notis decide priority from vague wording?

Tell Notis to update priority only when the conversation clearly signals urgency. The available Linear priority options and the exact issue match must be identifiable from the context.

What happens when no matching issue is found?

The instruction can tell Notis to make no change and report that it could not confidently identify the issue.
