Never Lose a Board Update Again
Board updates disappear into the timeline. Notis automatically archives every update in Affinda with timestamps, so you have a complete, searchable history of what you communicated and when.
Trigger
Project Update Posted
Fires when a project status update is posted on the Linear project's Updates tab. Covers projects in both public and private teams — polls with the connected user's token.
Action
Create Document
Tool to upload a new document for parsing. use when you have the document file or a public url and need to extract structured data immediately.
Why this helps
You post board updates in Linear, but they get buried in project history. Months later, you can't find what you promised, when you promised it, or what changed. You end up recreating updates or disappointing stakeholders.
- Automatically archive every board update with timestamp
- Create a searchable history of all communications
- Reference past commitments and decisions instantly
- Build stakeholder confidence through transparent history
- Maintain compliance records of communications
- Never scramble for old updates again

Questions about this workflow
What exactly gets archived?
The full update text, project name, date posted, author, and any attachments included with the update. This creates a complete record.
Can I search archived updates?
Yes. Affinda's search lets you find updates by project, date range, keyword, or author. You can also filter by status (on-track, at-risk, completed).
What if I need to correct an update?
Post a follow-up update explaining the correction. Both updates stay in the archive, creating a transparent record of decisions and changes.
How long are updates kept?
Indefinitely in Affinda, unless your retention policy specifies otherwise. You can archive collections by year if you want to organize by period.
