Create Linear issues from incoming webhooks

Your build pipeline fails, your AI assistant detects a problem, or a custom script identifies work - but creating an issue manually is a friction point. Use a webhook to fire an automation that creates a Linear issue instantly, keeping your workflow uninterrupted.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Create linear issue

Creates an issue in the specified team and project.

Why this helps

Manual issue creation breaks automation chains. When your CI/CD detects a failure, someone has to stop and manually create an issue in Linear, adding delay and human error.

  • Create issues programmatically without manual intervention
  • Automate issue creation from CI/CD pipelines, AI agents, or custom tools
  • Reduce lag time between problem detection and issue creation
  • Enable complex automation chains that span multiple systems
  • Keep development work flowing automatically

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear to Notis.
  • 2Create an automation and tell Notis: 'When an HTTP request arrives at my webhook, extract the title and description and create a new Linear issue with those details. Set priority to high if provided.'
  • 3Select 'Webhook Trigger' and Notis will generate a unique webhook URL.
  • 4Copy that URL into your CI/CD system, AI agent configuration, or custom script.
  • 5Test by sending a webhook request and verifying a Linear issue is created instantly.

Questions about this workflow

Can I send custom fields in the webhook request?

Yes. Send title, description, priority, assignee, labels, or anything else in your webhook payload and tell Notis how to map them.

What format should the webhook be?

Notis accepts JSON POST requests. Send a simple payload with title and description, or include complex fields for advanced automation.

Can multiple webhooks trigger the same automation?

Yes. One automation can receive from multiple sources - your build pipeline, AI agent, custom script, etc.

Is the webhook URL secret or should I protect it?

Yes, treat it like an API key. Notis webhooks are unique and private to your automation, so only share it with trusted services.
