Keep package retention reviews on track

Capture packages that need retention review as Linear issues, so a decision does not get lost in a busy release cycle.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Create linear issue

Creates an issue in the specified team and project.

Why this helps

Packages can remain in repositories without anyone noticing that a retention decision is due.

  • Make retention decisions visible and trackable.
  • Include the package and repository context available in the event.
  • Reduce reliance on someone remembering to create follow-up work.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Cloudsmith and Linear once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis in plain language from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to create a Linear issue when a Cloudsmith webhook identifies a package for retention review.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real webhook containing a package identified for review.

Questions about this workflow

Can this decide which packages are safe to delete?

No. It can create review work based on supplied criteria, but retention decisions require your policy and any relevant package data.

What if the webhook does not contain package age or usage?

Those details must be provided by the event or supplied through your instruction or additional context.
