Notis

Use API signals to update Linear issues

Send a signal to a Notis webhook and describe the issue change it should prompt. Notis can consult Apiverve, then update the identified Linear issue.

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

A meaningful external change can happen without anyone remembering to update the issue that tracks the work.

  • Reflect relevant external changes in the team's issue tracker.
  • Reduce manual follow-up after a signal arrives.
  • Keep issue status or details aligned with incoming information.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Apiverve and Linear to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis the outcome in plain language.
  • 3In one instruction, specify how Notis should interpret the signal, identify the existing issue, and what issue detail it may update.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real signal and verify the issue change.
