Refresh stale lead statuses automatically
Keep the board honest when lead reality changes.
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
Old lead issues remain in active states long after the underlying opportunity changes.
- Reduce stale work in active views
- Make follow-up queues trustworthy
- Create a repeatable cleanup routine
