Create a Linear issue when a VIN check finds a recall
Put recall findings in the same place your team tracks work. Send a VIN lookup to Notis and get a Linear issue with the relevant vehicle and recall context.
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
Recall details can get lost between a vehicle lookup and the team that needs to assess or act on them.
- Create a trackable follow-up from a recall finding.
- Keep VIN and recall context with the issue.
- Reduce manual copying between vehicle research and project tracking.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect CarsXE and Linear once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to check submitted VINs for available recalls and create a Linear issue for findings that need review.
- 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real VIN lookup and confirm the issue contains useful recall context.
Questions about this workflow
Does CarsXE start this automatically when a recall changes?
No CarsXE trigger events are available for this workflow. A webhook request starts it, and Notis can check the CarsXE data available for the submitted VIN.
What should the Linear issue include?
Ask Notis to include the VIN, returned vehicle details, and recall information available from the lookup. Do not expect fields that CarsXE does not return.
