Permissions Follow Assignments Automatically
When a Linear issue is assigned to someone, Notis automatically grants them the necessary Backendless permissions, keeping access aligned with responsibility.
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
Grant Permission to User
Tool to grant a permission to a user on a specific data object. use when precise access rights must be assigned after verifying the table and object ids. example: "grant find permission to a user for a person record".
Why this helps
Manual permission management when issues are reassigned creates access gaps, security risks, and wasted time requesting or granting access.
- Eliminate manual permission management when assignments change
- Reduce access request friction and delays
- Keep permissions synchronized with responsibility
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Backendless to Notis
- 2Ask Notis: 'When an issue is assigned to someone in my public Linear team, grant them appropriate permissions in Backendless'
- 3Specify which permissions to grant (read, write, delete, or custom roles)
- 4Choose your notification channel for permission changes
- 5Assign a test issue to a team member and verify they receive Backendless permissions
Questions about this workflow
What permissions should I grant?
Depends on your workflow. Typically: read permission to view issue details, write if they need to update data. Notis can read your preferences.
What happens when an issue is reassigned?
Notis can revoke permissions from the old assignee and grant to the new one, or extend permissions cumulatively - you decide the policy.
