Refresh Linear issues with Backendless follow-up details
Bring the latest Backendless follow-up context back to the Linear issue your team is tracking.
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
Linear issues can go stale when follow-up details are added to Backendless and nobody carries them across.
- Review available follow-up records on a recurring schedule.
- Add relevant new context to the matching existing Linear issues.
- Make issue reviews easier with fresher information in one place.
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 review accessible Backendless follow-up records and update the matching existing Linear issue with relevant new details, using the identifiers provided by the records.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real follow-up record and confirm the intended issue is updated.
Questions about this workflow
Does this workflow create issues for records without a matching issue?
No. This workflow updates existing issues. The instruction and available record information need to identify the intended issue.
Can it tell what details are new?
Only if the accessible data provides enough context to identify relevant follow-up information. Notis cannot infer missing history or baselines.
Can I choose how often it runs?
Yes. Choose a recurring schedule when setting the automation trigger in Notis.
