Track Brex overspend alerts in Linear

When Brex flags spending that needs a closer look, create a Linear issue so the investigation has a clear home.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Create linear issue

Creates a new issue in a specified linear project and team, requiring a title and description, and allowing for optional properties like assignee, state, priority, cycle, and due date.

Why this helps

Spend alerts can get lost between finance dashboards and the team that needs to investigate them.

  • Give unusual spend a visible owner and follow-up path.
  • Keep the alert details with the investigation.
  • Reduce manual copying between Brex and Linear.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Brex and Linear once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3In one instruction, tell Notis to create a Linear issue from each Brex overspend alert and include the alert details.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real Brex alert.

Questions about this workflow

What starts this workflow?

A webhook request starts it. Brex does not provide a listed trigger event here, so your connected Brex workflow must send the relevant alert to the Notis webhook.

Can Notis decide which team or project to use?

You can name a team and project in the instruction. If those details are missing or unclear, Notis should ask or report the missing context rather than guess.
