Make a next step from a cluster of Are.na ideas
When a channel starts pointing toward a project, turn the pattern into one useful issue instead of copying every item.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Create linear issue
Creates a new issue in a specified linear project and team, requiring a title and description, and allowing for optional properties like assignee, state, priority, cycle, and due date.
Why this helps
A collection may contain a clear emerging direction, but the signal is hard to act on when it remains spread across many blocks.
- Summarize several submitted references into one coherent issue.
- Preserve the channel context and source URLs in the description.
- Help move from exploration to a decision or follow-up.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Are.na and Linear once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation in Notis by name, prompt, report channel, and trigger.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to synthesize the submitted channel summary into one Linear issue with the theme, proposed next step, and source links.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real channel summary and review the issue for accurate synthesis.
Questions about this workflow
Does Notis read the channel directly?
No Are.na read trigger or action is specified here. Submit the channel summary and source URLs in the webhook request.
Will it create one issue per block?
The instruction asks for one synthesis issue. Include only the relevant channel material in the request.
Can it separate decisions from open questions?
Yes, the instruction can ask for those sections, provided the submitted summary contains enough evidence to distinguish them.
