Plan contact follow-up against Linear cycles

Fit outreach work into real delivery capacity.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Get all cycles

Retrieves all cycles (time-boxed iterations for work) from the linear account; no filters are applied.

Why this helps

Follow-up commitments are made without checking the team's current cycle load.

  • Align follow-up with capacity
  • Make cycle tradeoffs visible
  • Reduce overcommitted plans

  • 2Create an automation named Contact cycle planning.
  • 3Tell Notis to list Linear cycles and recommend where the supplied Bettercontact follow-up work fits based on your capacity rules.
  • 4Pick the recurring schedule trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real planning review.
