Why this helps
Priority changes get missed because you're in deep work. Or you get flooded with notifications about low-priority shifts that don't affect your actual day.
- Only notifies on priority shifts that actually affect your work
- Respects your focus time using smart notification rules
- Reduces notification noise from low-impact priority changes
- Ensures actual priority escalations don't get missed
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Apilio to Notis (one-time setup).
- 2In Apilio, create boolean flags for notification preferences (e.g., 'notify_on_escalation', 'in_focus_mode', 'high_priority_only').
- 3Ask Notis: 'When a Linear issue priority changes, check my notification preferences and notify only if I want to be interrupted.' Create via portal or chat.
- 4Select 'Issue Updated' as your trigger and choose your notification channel.
- 5Test by toggling your focus mode and changing priorities to verify notification behavior respects your flags.
Questions about this workflow
How do I know when to toggle focus mode?
Toggle it manually before deep work, or set it on a schedule (e.g., mornings are focus time). You control when interruptions happen.
What priority levels should trigger notifications?
Set your threshold: maybe only urgent and above, or maybe anything moving TO high. Your Notis prompt defines this.
Can I adjust notification settings by project?
Yes. Create separate boolean flags for different projects or teams. Notis selects the right flag based on where the priority change occurred.
