Create Linear issues from Brilliant Directories onboarding requests

Give each member onboarding request a clear home in Linear, with the relevant context ready for follow-up.

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

Member onboarding requests can get lost between community operations and the team tracking the work.

  • Keep onboarding requests visible alongside planned work.
  • Reduce retyping by carrying request details into the issue description.
  • Make it easier to follow up on unresolved onboarding work.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Brilliant Directories and Linear once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or by telling Notis what you want.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to create a Linear issue for each submitted onboarding request and include its available member context.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real onboarding request and review the resulting issue.

Questions about this workflow

Does Brilliant Directories provide a built-in trigger for this workflow?

No Brilliant Directories trigger event is listed here. Start the automation with a Notis webhook and send it the onboarding request when it is ready.

Can Notis assign the issue to a specific person?

You can ask Notis to assign it if you provide a reliable person or assignment rule. The source description does not specify an owner field, so include that information when it is needed.
