Create epic comment comment
This endpoint allows you to create a nested comment reply to an existing epic comment.
Create group
Creates a new group in the shortcut system with customizable properties. this endpoint allows you to set up a group with a unique mention name, display name, optional description, and various customization options. use this when you need to establish a new team, department, or any other collective within your shortcut workspace. the created group can include members, associated workflows, and visual customizations like color and icon. this endpoint is particularly useful for organizing your shortcut workspace structure, facilitating team collaboration, and streamlining workflow management. note that while member and workflow associations can be set during creation, they can also be modified later using separate endpoints.
Create iteration
The createiteration endpoint allows you to create a new iteration in shortcut, which represents a time-boxed period for completing a set of stories or tasks. this endpoint is crucial for teams using agile methodologies, enabling them to plan and track progress over specific time periods. use this endpoint when setting up sprint cycles, planning releases, or organizing work into manageable timeframes. the endpoint requires essential information such as the iteration's name and date range, while also offering options to add followers, associate groups, and attach labels for better organization and tracking. it's important to note that while multiple groups can be added via the api, the current web ui only displays one group association. this endpoint should not be used for modifying existing iterations; instead, use the dedicated update endpoint for such changes.
Create label
Create label allows you to create a new label in shortcut.
Four ways to start an automation.
A trigger is the event that kicks a workflow off. Notis supports four kinds: an event in a connected app, an inbound webhook, a recurring schedule, and soon, your own database.
Integration triggers
Fire when something happens inside a connected app. New Notion page, Stripe charge, Linear issue: any of 1,000+ apps can start a workflow.
Webhook triggers
A unique URL per workflow. Anything that can send an HTTP POST can start an automation, including no-code tools that speak webhooks.
Recurring triggers
Cron-style schedules run a workflow on the clock. Daily standups, hourly syncs, business-hours-only digests: the workhorse of Notis.
Database triggers
Watch a row, query, or threshold in your own database and fire the moment the data changes. Row inserted, value crosses a limit, query starts matching.
Classic automation breaks. AI adapts.
Same triggers and actions, smarter middle. AI handles the fuzziness that breaks traditional Zapier-style workflows the moment a field gets renamed.
Describe it. Notis builds it.
Skip the visual builder. Tell Notis what you want, in plain English. It writes the workflow, you review and deploy.
