Never Start an Issue Blind
When a new Linear issue arrives, Notis automatically retrieves your pending work queue from Backendless, so you see the full context before you start.
Trigger
Issue Created Trigger
Triggered when a new issue is created.
Action
Get Key Items
Tool to retrieve values for a specified key in a list (all, single, or range). use when you need specific elements or the entire list from a hive key. supports single index retrieval, range retrieval, or full list.
Why this helps
New issues arrive without visibility into related pending work, leading to duplicate effort, conflicting priorities, and avoidable rework.
- See pending context when issues arrive
- Prevent duplicate work by knowing what's already in progress
- Improve prioritization decisions with full context
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Backendless to Notis
- 2Tell Notis: 'When a new issue is created in Linear, retrieve pending items from my work queue in Backendless and show me related items'
- 3Specify how to find related pending work (by assignee, keywords, or project)
- 4Choose your notification channel
- 5Create a test issue and verify Notis shows you related pending work from Backendless
Questions about this workflow
What should I put in my pending queue?
Anything in progress or waiting for action - work that hasn't been started yet. Notis will help you organize this.
Can I update the queue when I start or finish work?
Yes. Set up automations to automatically move items through your queue as issue status changes.
