Keep only critical work front and center in Basecamp
When a high-priority issue is created or updated in Linear, Notis creates a card in your Basecamp focus column. Low-priority work stays in Linear; your team sees only what needs immediate attention.
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 Card in Column
Tool to create a new card in a column of a Basecamp card table. Use when you need to add a card to a card table column with optional content and due date.
Why this helps
Your Basecamp board is overwhelmed with every task, making it impossible to distinguish urgent work from background items. Neurodivergent team members struggle to filter noise and identify priorities.
- Your Basecamp board stays lean - only critical issues create cards
- Reduce decision paralysis by having fewer items to evaluate
- Team members with ADHD can focus on urgent work without scanning low-priority items
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Basecamp to Notis.
- 2Create an automation with the prompt: 'When a Linear issue is created or updated with high priority, create a card in Basecamp.'
- 3Select 'Issue Created' or 'Issue Updated' as the trigger, with a filter for 'priority = high' or 'priority = urgent'.
- 4Choose a Basecamp column reserved for priority work (e.g., 'This Week' or 'Critical').
- 5Test by creating a high-priority issue in Linear and a standard-priority one, confirming only the high-priority issue creates a Basecamp card.
Questions about this workflow
How do I define 'high priority' for this automation?
You tell Notis which priority levels matter to you when setting up the automation. This might be 'Urgent' and 'High', or just 'Critical' if you have custom labels.
Can I adjust priority thresholds later?
Yes. Open the automation in the Notis portal and update the priority filter. Changes take effect immediately for new issues.
What if my team uses labels instead of a priority field?
Tell Notis to watch for specific labels (e.g., 'urgent', 'blocking') instead of a priority field. The automation works with any Linear property.
