Link Linear Feedback Directly to Amara Subtitles

When a reviewer leaves translation feedback in a Linear comment, Notis automatically adds it to the Amara subtitle notes. Feedback stays with the subtitles, translators see it, nothing gets lost.

Trigger

Comment Received Trigger

Triggered when a comment is received.

Action

Add Subtitle Note

Tool to add a note to a subtitle set. use after retrieving the notes uri of the subtitle set.

Why this helps

Translation feedback lives in Linear comments but translators check Amara for work, creating a disconnect where notes are missed or repeated.

  • Feedback stays visible in Amara where translators work
  • No repeated or missed feedback
  • Clear audit trail of changes
  • Faster iteration cycles

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Amara to Notis.
  • 2Create an automation: 'When someone comments on a subtitle or translation task in Linear with feedback, add that comment as a note to the Amara subtitle set'.
  • 3Select trigger: Comment Received (Linear).
  • 4Choose notification channel.
  • 5Test by leaving a comment on a subtitle task and confirm it appears as a note in Amara.

Questions about this workflow

How does Notis know which subtitle to add the note to?

Reference the video ID or video URL in the Linear task comment. Notis will attach the note to the right subtitle set in Amara.

Can I format the notes (bold, bullets, etc.)?

Notis preserves basic formatting from Linear comments. Complex formatting may not transfer--plain text is most reliable.

What if the subtitle has multiple languages?

Specify the language in the comment (e.g., 'Spanish subtitles: fix timing on segment 3') and Notis will add the note to that language.
