Attach new error context to a Linear issue

Keep a developing investigation current by adding incoming diagnostic details to its existing issue.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Create a comment

Creates a new comment on a specified linear issue.

Why this helps

New error evidence can be scattered across reports while the Linear investigation remains out of date.

  • Keep subsequent error evidence with the related issue.
  • Avoid switching tools to paste diagnostic details.
  • Preserve the existing issue as the investigation's shared record.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Bug Recorder and Linear once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to comment on the existing Linear issue identified in the webhook payload, including only supplied error details.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real payload that identifies an existing Linear issue.

Questions about this workflow

How does the automation know which issue to comment on?

The webhook payload or your instruction must identify the existing Linear issue. The action creates a comment on a specified issue.

Will it create an issue if there is no matching one?

No. This action only creates a comment on an existing issue. Use an issue-creation workflow when no issue is identified.

Can it decide whether two error reports are related?

Only when the payload includes enough identifying context and your instruction defines how to use it. Notis cannot infer absent history or identifiers.
