Keep Linear hiring priorities aligned with the Ashby pipeline
Use a recurring pipeline review to keep existing hiring issues aligned with the candidate context and next steps in Ashby.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
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
Hiring priorities shift as candidates progress, but Linear issues can continue to reflect an earlier stage or plan.
- Review pipeline context without manually comparing every record.
- Update existing Linear issues when a relevant next step changes.
- Keep changes tied to current source information.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ashby and Linear once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis in plain language from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to review the pipeline, find related existing Linear issues, and update only issues with a clearly changed next step.
- 4Choose a recurring Notis schedule as the trigger.
- 5Choose a report channel, then test with one real candidate and issue.
Questions about this workflow
Will it infer changes from information Ashby does not retain?
No. A comparison requires current and prior context to be available to Notis. Supply any missing baseline or limit the review to current information.
Can it create new issues too?
This workflow updates existing issues. Ask for issue creation only when a separate, clearly actionable follow-up is needed.
