Onboarding Starts Automatically
New team members join Discord and then... what? Notis creates a personalized onboarding checklist issue in Linear so nothing gets forgotten.
Trigger
New Member Joined
Action
Create linear issue
Creates an issue in a specified Linear team with the supplied details.
Why this helps
New members join but onboarding is manual—someone has to remember to create a checklist issue, or tasks get missed and delays pile up.
- Onboarding checklists start automatically with each new hire
- No step gets forgotten or delayed
- Track onboarding progress in Linear alongside work
- Reduce cognitive load on team leads managing new starts
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notis to your Discord server and Linear workspace.
- 2Create an automation: 'When a new member joins my Discord server, create an onboarding checklist issue in Linear with their name and join date.'
- 3Define your standard onboarding checklist (tools access, docs review, first project, etc.) in the automation prompt.
- 4Test by inviting a test user to Discord and verify the onboarding issue appears in Linear.
Questions about this workflow
Can I customize the onboarding checklist per role?
Yes, tell Notis which roles (e.g., engineer, designer, manager) map to which checklists. Notis can assign different tasks based on the new member's Discord role.
Does Notis need the new member's information?
Notis uses Discord's member data (username, join date, roles) automatically. You can also ask Notis to tag a manager or send a survey to collect additional details.
What if a member doesn't complete onboarding?
The issue tracks progress in Linear. You can set up a separate reminder automation to flag uncompleted onboarding checklists after a week.
