View Current Subtitles When Task Status Changes
No more manual subtitle lookups. When you update a caption task status in Linear, Notis fetches the actual subtitle data from Amara--so you know exactly what's been translated and what's pending.
Trigger
Issue Updated Trigger
Triggered when an issue is updated. For example labels are changed, issue status is changed, etc.
Action
Fetch Subtitles Data
Tool to fetch subtitle data for a video in a specific language. use when you need to retrieve subtitle segments after confirming video id and language code.
Why this helps
You update task statuses in Linear but then have to jump to Amara to actually verify the subtitles match. Manual context-switching defeats the purpose of task tracking.
- Verify subtitles without manual app-switching
- Catch incomplete translations early
- Keep single source of truth in Linear
- Reduce dropped-ball risk
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Amara to Notis (one-time integrations).
- 2In Notis portal, create a new automation with the prompt: 'When I update a caption or subtitle task status in Linear, fetch the current subtitle data from Amara for that video'.
- 3Select trigger: Issue Updated (Linear).
- 4Choose your notification channel.
- 5Test by changing a caption task status from 'In Progress' to 'Review' and see subtitle data appear in your channel.
Questions about this workflow
How does Notis know which video to check?
Reference the video ID or video URL in your Linear issue. Notis will match it to fetch the right subtitles.
Can this work for multiple languages at once?
Yes. If you specify which language in the issue (e.g., 'Spanish subtitles'), Notis will fetch that language. Repeat for each language you're tracking.
What if the subtitles haven't been created yet in Amara?
Notis will let you know that no subtitles exist for that language, prompting you to create them first.
