Keep Personal Health Information Confidential
Accessibility requests often include sensitive health details. Protect them automatically.
Trigger
Issue Created Trigger
Triggered when a new issue is created.
Action
Anonymize Value
Tool to anonymize a string or array of string values. use when you need to conceal sensitive text before storage or transmission. example: `anonymizevalue().execute(anonymizevaluerequest(data=['secret']))` limitations: only supports list of strings, not nested structures.
Why this helps
When team members request accommodations, they sometimes share diagnoses or medical details to explain the need. Those details stay in Linear searchable by everyone. Neurodivergent and disabled employees face unfair judgment if health info gets out. You want to support accommodations without broadcasting medical info.
- Protects employee privacy
- Reduces discrimination risk
- Supports neurodivergent team members
- Enables confidential accommodations
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Anonyflow to Notis.
- 2Create an automation: 'When a new Linear issue is created, anonymize any medical diagnoses, health conditions, or disability-related details in the description.'
- 3Set the trigger to 'Issue Created'.
- 4Send notifications to your People/HR channel only.
- 5Test with a sample accessibility request containing health details and verify they're redacted.
Questions about this workflow
How will HR know what accommodation to provide if the details are redacted?
HR can recover the original data with Anonyflow's deanonymization key. The public issue stays private; only authorized people see the full request.
Does this affect the accommodation workflow?
No. The accommodation still gets processed. This just keeps the sensitive details away from general access.
What if the employee needs to reference their own accommodation request?
Share the deanonymized version with them directly, not through Linear.
