Turn Chatforma user requests into clear Linear work
Give requests that need action a home in the team's issue tracker.
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
Requests gathered through a bot can be forgotten when they are not connected to the team's planning flow.
- Make action-worthy requests visible in the team's existing tracker.
- Preserve the requester's stated need without embellishing it.
- Reduce missed follow-ups from chatbot conversations.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Chatforma and Linear once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Describe how to turn requests needing team action into concise Linear issues in one instruction.
- 4Choose the Notis webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real user request sent to the webhook.
Questions about this workflow
Should every request create an issue?
Specify in the instruction which requests need team action. Notis can apply that rule to the supplied request.
Can it categorize requests by topic?
It can summarize and identify a topic from the supplied text, but this workflow does not create or apply Linear labels.
What if the request is ambiguous?
Ask the automation to keep the issue factual and state what needs clarification.
