Keep Linear Issues Current with Phone Verification
Bring new phone verification evidence back to the Linear issue that needs it.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
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
A verification update can arrive after the original issue was created, leaving tracked work with stale context.
- Refresh existing issue context when relevant new results are available.
- Keep follow-up attached to the existing work item.
- Avoid changing issues when the available result adds no useful information.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Abstract and Linear once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to review available Abstract phone verification updates and update only the referenced Linear issues when the supplied evidence adds relevant context.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real update and its existing Linear issue reference.
Questions about this workflow
Can this update an issue if no issue reference is supplied?
No reliable association can be made without an existing Linear issue reference or other identifying context supplied to Notis.
What if there are no new findings?
The instruction can tell Notis to leave issues unchanged when the available results add no relevant information.
