Never Let New Issues Drop Off Your Radar
Each new Linear issue immediately triggers a Backendless timer so you get reminded to follow up, even if hours pass before you check Linear again.
Trigger
Issue Created Trigger
Triggered when a new issue is created.
Action
Create Backendless Timer
Tool to create a new timer with schedule and code. use when scheduling recurring or one-off tasks to run server-side logic after confirming parameters.
Why this helps
New issues get created but you lose track of them because time blindness makes it impossible to remember when you last looked at a task.
- Never miss a follow-up on new issues due to time blindness
- Automatic reminders reduce anxiety about forgotten tasks
- Spread cognitive load over time with scheduled check-ins
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect your Linear workspace and Backendless account to Notis (one-time setup in portal)
- 2Tell Notis: 'When a new issue is created in Linear, create a follow-up timer in Backendless for 2 days from now'
- 3Choose Slack or email as your channel for timer notifications
- 4Test by creating a new issue in Linear and verify the timer appears in Backendless
- 5Adjust the follow-up interval based on your typical issue lifespan
Questions about this workflow
Can I set different follow-up times for different issue types?
Yes. Notis can read the issue label or type and adjust the timer delay accordingly - ask Notis to customize based on priority or category.
What happens if I resolve the issue before the timer fires?
You can manually cancel the timer in Backendless, or set up a second automation to delete the timer when the issue closes.
