Bring Census evidence into the Linear discussion
Put a useful Census statistic beside the work it informs, without making teammates hunt through a separate report.
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
A relevant data point may reach the team without the source, timeframe, or issue context needed to evaluate it.
- Keep a statistic and its source attached to the issue discussion.
- Make the geography and reporting period explicit for reviewers.
- Reduce context switching between a data lookup and project tracking.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Census Bureau and Linear once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation in Notis and name it for adding Census evidence to an issue.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to summarize the submitted statistic with its geography, timeframe, and source, then comment on the specified existing Linear issue.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with a real statistic and an existing issue identifier, then check the comment.
Questions about this workflow
Does this create an issue for me?
No. This workflow comments on a specified existing Linear issue. Use the issue reference in the webhook input and instruction.
Will Notis verify a baseline or historical trend?
Only if the submitted material includes that context or the instruction supplies a source and comparison to use. It should not invent a baseline that Census data did not provide.
