Sync Folder Changes to Linear Projects
Rename or update a folder in Clickup and the corresponding Linear project details update automatically. Keep naming and scope in perfect sync.
Trigger
Folder Updated
Triggers when a Folder is updated (renamed, content edited, etc.).
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
Folder names or descriptions are updated in Clickup but Linear projects carry old or outdated names, creating confusion about what a project actually covers.
- Project names and scopes stay consistent across tools
- No confusion from outdated project descriptions
- Automatic sync reduces manual update burden
- Clear, current naming for easier navigation
Setup

- 1Connect Clickup and Linear to Notis.
- 2Create an automation: 'When a folder name or description is changed in Clickup, update the corresponding Linear project with the new details.'
- 3Use 'Clickup - Folder Updated' as the trigger.
- 4Set your notification channel.
- 5Test by renaming or updating a Clickup folder and verify the Linear project updates.
