Refresh stale product issues with scheduled Best Buy research

Give product planning a regular freshness check so old research does not quietly drive new work.

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

Teams continue from stale product information because nobody owns the refresh step.

  • Catches stale assumptions on a cadence
  • Keeps issue descriptions useful
  • Reduces rework caused by old research

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Bestbuy and Linear once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation instructing Notis to review the supplied Best Buy research and update only Linear issues with material changes.
  • 3Pick the notis_cron trigger and set the review schedule.
  • 4Choose a report channel and test with one real issue and research set.

Questions about this workflow

What counts as stale?

Define the freshness rule in your instruction, such as an age threshold or a material product change.

Can it leave unchanged issues alone?

Yes. Ask Notis to update only issues where the supplied research shows a meaningful change.
