Create Linear issues from Backendless API failures
Send an API failure to Notis and give your team a clear place to investigate it.
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
Important API failures can get buried in logs before anyone turns them into work.
- Turn a reported failure into a trackable Linear issue.
- Keep the error context from the incoming request with the task.
- Reduce manual copying between Backendless and Linear.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Backendless and Linear once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Notis and name it.
- 3Tell Notis to create a Linear issue from each incoming Backendless API failure, using the supplied error details and a concise investigation summary.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real API failure and review the issue Notis creates.
Questions about this workflow
What starts this workflow?
An HTTP request to the Notis webhook starts it. Your Backendless setup must send the failure details in that request.
Will it detect failures directly from Backendless?
The workflow starts from a webhook request. Backendless must call that webhook with the failure information.
What if the request does not include enough context?
Notis can only use the information it receives. Include useful details such as the error message, affected service, and relevant record identifier in the request.
