Link Ably event evidence to Linear issues

Keep an Ably event reference beside the Linear issue it supports, so useful context is easier to revisit.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create linear attachment

Creates a new attachment and associates it with a specific, existing linear issue.

Why this helps

Event evidence can be hard to find when its reference stays in an Ably workflow and the issue lives in Linear.

  • Associate supplied Ably evidence with an existing Linear issue.
  • Make supporting event context easier to locate from the issue.
  • Avoid manually recreating links across tools.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ably and Linear once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to create a Linear attachment for the supplied Ably event reference on the specified existing issue.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real event reference and issue.

Questions about this workflow

Does this create an attachment file from the event?

The action creates an attachment associated with an existing Linear issue. Supply the attachment information and event reference that you want linked.

Can the workflow create the issue too?

This workflow attaches evidence to an existing issue. A separate automation can create an issue when the webhook contains enough details.
