Automatic Blocker Documentation
Issue blocked? Workspace created instantly. Track the blocker, the timeline, and the path to unblocking without scrambling.
Trigger
Public Team Issue Properties Updated
Fires when properties on a *public-team* Linear issue change (status, assignee, priority, labels, etc.). For private teams (lock icon in Linear's sidebar) use `LINEAR_PRIVATE_TEAM_ISSUE_PROPERTIES_UPDATED`.
Action
Create DocSet
Tool to create a new docset. use when you need to allocate a storage container before adding documents.
Why this helps
Blocked issues get lost in the backlog. You forget which dependency is holding you up, when it's due, or who's responsible for unblocking. Progress stalls silently.
- Blocked issues never disappear from view
- Clear tracking of blocker details and timeline
- Dedicated space for dependency coordination
- Reduces silent stalls in project progress
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Integrate Linear and Aryn with Notis.
- 2Tell Notis: 'When an issue is labeled as blocked, create a workspace in Aryn to track it.'
- 3Choose your notification channel for alerts.
- 4Label an issue as blocked in Linear and watch Notis provision the tracking workspace.
- 5Use the workspace to document the blocker reason, timeline, and next steps.
Questions about this workflow
What if my label is different (e.g., 'waiting', 'dependency')?
Notis can trigger on any label you use. Just specify your labeling convention when you set up the automation.
Does this automatically resolve when the issue unblocks?
You'll see the workspace remains; that gives you a record of what blocked progress. You can archive it when fully resolved.
