Surface aging directory follow-up in Linear
Bring potentially aging directory operations work back into view with a scheduled summary and a shared issue comment.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Create a comment
Creates a new comment on a specified linear issue.
Why this helps
Open follow-ups are easy to overlook when there is no regular prompt to scan the backlog.
- Prompt a regular scan for open work needing attention.
- Make follow-up reminders visible to the team.
- Reduce the need to remember which issues have been waiting.
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 the outcome you want.
- 3Ask Notis to review open Linear directory operations issues and comment on a designated issue with items that appear to need follow-up.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test the review and confirm the comment uses only issue details and age information that Linear provides.
Questions about this workflow
Can it identify how long an issue has been open?
Only if the issue data returned includes suitable date information. If age cannot be established from the available data, provide a cutoff rule or omit age claims.
Does this automatically update or assign the flagged issues?
No. This workflow posts a summary comment. Updating or assigning issues would require a separate workflow and a valid decision rule.
