Keep Basecamp updated when work status changes in Linear
When an issue moves to 'In Progress' or another key status in Linear, Notis creates a corresponding card in Basecamp. Your team sees status changes without checking Linear.
Trigger
Issue Updated Trigger
Triggered when an issue is updated. For example labels are changed, issue status is changed, etc.
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
Status updates in Linear go unnoticed by your Basecamp-based team, leading to duplicate work, missed blockers, or team members working on stale priorities.
- Your team is notified of status changes in real time, not when someone remembers to check Linear
- Reduce context-switching by seeing progress updates in your primary tool
- Catch blockers and priority changes immediately
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Ensure Linear and Basecamp are connected to Notis.
- 2Create an automation with the prompt: 'When a Linear issue status changes to In Progress, Review, or Blocked, create a card in Basecamp to flag it.'
- 3Select 'Issue Updated' as the trigger and specify which Linear team or project to watch.
- 4Choose your Basecamp column for status cards (e.g., 'In Progress' or 'Urgent').
- 5Test by changing an issue status in Linear and confirming the card appears in Basecamp.
Questions about this workflow
Can I create cards only for specific statuses, not every status change?
Yes. Tell Notis which statuses matter to you (e.g., 'only create cards when status becomes In Progress or Blocked') and it will filter accordingly.
What if I want different cards for different statuses?
Create multiple automations, each watching for a specific status change and sending cards to a different Basecamp column.
Will duplicate cards be created if an issue changes status multiple times?
Yes, each status change triggers a new card. If that's too noisy, you can adjust the automation to only watch for specific status transitions.
