Alerts Escalate Your Linear Issues
An external alert fires (critical error, customer escalation, system outage). Notis finds the related Linear issue and boosts its priority so your team sees it immediately.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
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
A production issue flares up in your monitoring system, but the related Linear issue stays in medium priority. Your team doesn't know it's critical until someone notices. By then, time is lost.
- Critical issues auto-escalate in Linear the moment they're detected elsewhere.
- Your team responds faster because they see priority without hunting.
- You reduce incident response latency.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear to Notis.
- 2Create an automation: 'When a webhook arrives with alert data, find the related Linear issue and update its priority to Urgent.'
- 3Notis will provide a webhook URL.
- 4Configure your alerting system (monitoring, error tracking, customer escalation) to send webhooks to that URL when critical issues occur.
- 5Test by triggering an alert and verifying the priority changes in Linear.
Questions about this workflow
How does Notis match an alert to a Linear issue?
Your prompt defines it—by error keywords, service name, or custom fields. Notis learns from your examples.
Can I set different priorities based on alert severity?
Yes. You can map alert levels (critical, high, medium) to Linear priorities automatically.
Should this create a new issue or update an existing one?
Best practice: update an existing issue if one already exists for that alert type, or create a new one if it's a new incident.
