Move updated tasks into team tracking
Some tasks start as reminders and later become work for the team. Notis can create a Linear issue when an update makes that change clear.
Trigger
Task Updated
Triggers when an existing task is updated in a Google Tasks list. This trigger monitors a specific task list and fires when tasks are modified.
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
A task can gain importance after capture, while the routine of copying it into team tracking is easy to forget.
- Catch work when it becomes actionable, not only at initial capture.
- Avoid a separate manual handoff into Linear.
- Keep qualifying team tasks visible for follow-through.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Tasks and Linear to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3Describe in one instruction what update makes an existing task ready to become a Linear issue.
- 4Select the Task Updated trigger for the relevant list and choose a channel for run reports.
- 5Test by updating one real task into actionable team work.
