Keep Linear issues current with Backendless service status
Reflect a service status change in the Linear issue your team is already tracking.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
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
A status recorded in one system can leave the related Linear issue stale and misleading.
- Update an existing issue when Backendless sends a status change.
- Keep investigation notes aligned with the latest supplied service details.
- Reduce stale issue information and manual follow-up.
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 update the existing Linear issue identified in each request with the supplied service status and relevant investigation details.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real status change and check the updated issue.
Questions about this workflow
Does this workflow update any issue automatically?
It should update the issue identified by the incoming request. Include the correct issue identifier and the details to apply.
What kind of status can it use?
It can use status information supplied by Backendless. The workflow does not assume a particular Backendless status field or invent one.
What happens if the issue identifier is missing?
Notis cannot reliably choose the intended issue without enough identifying information in the request.
