Keep Linear issues aligned with Canny request status
Carry meaningful status changes from feedback tracking into the Linear issue the team follows.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
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
A request can appear resolved in Canny while its related Linear issue still shows an outdated state.
- Reduce stale status across feedback and delivery.
- Make customer request progress easier to follow.
- Avoid manual status updates when the relationship is clear.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Canny and Linear once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation and describe which Canny status changes should affect an issue.
- 3Tell Notis how to identify the existing Linear issue and which valid state should reflect each change.
- 4Choose a webhook trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with a real request and verify the intended issue state.
Questions about this workflow
Can it update any Linear state?
The state must be a valid state for the issue's team. Describe the intended mapping in your instruction and verify it with a real example.
What if the related issue is unclear?
Provide a reliable matching rule using context available in both apps. Otherwise review the run report before relying on automatic updates.
