Keep Asana and Linear comments synchronized
Comments scattered across tools break focus and create duplicate conversations. Notis syncs every comment from Asana to Linear automatically, so your team sees the full picture in both places.
Trigger
New Comment on Task
Fires when a comment is added to a task in a project.
Action
Create a comment
Add a comment to an issue; this shared workspace change cannot be undone.
Why this helps
Context fragmentation is exhausting for neurodivergent teams. When team members comment in Asana but the developer checks Linear, important context is missed. This forces people to constantly context-switch to find complete information.
- Maintain a single source of truth for task discussions
- Prevent team members from missing critical updates
- Eliminate duplicate comments across tools
- Preserve full conversation history automatically
- Reduce context-switching to follow discussions
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Ensure Asana and Linear are connected to Notis (one-time setup in the portal).
- 2Create a new automation and tell Notis: 'When someone comments on an Asana task, add that comment to the matching Linear issue.'
- 3Select 'New Comment on Task' as your trigger.
- 4Choose a channel for Notis to report successful syncs.
- 5Test by commenting on an Asana task and watching it appear in Linear moments later.
Questions about this workflow
Does this work with mentions and replies?
Yes. Notis syncs the full comment text including mentions and threads, though @mentions may translate to names in Linear.
Can I filter which comments sync?
You can tell Notis to only sync comments containing certain keywords or from specific people. For example, 'Only sync comments with #blocking or #urgent'.
What happens if a task has no corresponding Linear issue?
Notis can create the issue automatically or skip the comment. Let us know your preference during setup.
Is the synced comment attributed to the original author?
Notis includes the original author's name and timestamp in the synced comment so Linear users know where it came from.
