Update the related Linear issue when a build fails

Keep an open investigation aligned with the latest Appcircle failure details.

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 related issue can go stale when a new build fails but the investigation continues in Linear.

  • Keep an existing issue current as new failure details arrive.
  • Reduce manual re-entry of build context.
  • Help investigators see what changed since the last update.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Appcircle and Linear once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and describe which issue details to update.
  • 3Choose a webhook trigger for the new Appcircle failure notification.
  • 4Choose where Notis should send run reports.
  • 5Test with a known issue and a failure that has new context.

Questions about this workflow

How does this differ from a comment?

This updates issue attributes, such as its description, when you provide an issue id and a supported change. Use a comment when you want to preserve a timeline entry.

What if the failure has no new information?

Instruct Notis to avoid an unnecessary update and report that no actionable change was present.
