Document your issue processes
When an issue is created from a Linear template, Notis saves the template structure as a Basecamp document. Your team has a persistent record of how you organize work, and new members understand your process.
Trigger
Issue Created Trigger
Triggered when a new issue is created.
Action
Create Document in Vault
Tool to create a new document in a Basecamp vault. Use when you need to publish a document in a specific project vault with title, HTML content, and optional publication status.
Why this helps
Template knowledge lives only in Linear. New team members don't know why tasks are structured a certain way. Processes aren't documented, so consistency breaks down when people leave or templates get lost.
- Your team understands the process behind each type of work
- New members quickly learn how work is organized without asking questions
- Preserve institutional knowledge about how you structure and prioritize work
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 from a template, save the template structure as a document in my Basecamp vault.'
- 3Select 'Issue Created' as the trigger, filtering for template-based issues.
- 4Specify which Basecamp vault to save the documentation to.
- 5Test by creating an issue from a Linear template and confirming the structure is saved in Basecamp.
Questions about this workflow
What parts of the template get saved?
The automation captures the template fields, required information, and structure. You can customize what gets included in the saved document.
Will each template create a separate document?
Yes, each template can create its own reference document. You can organize them in your Basecamp vault by template type for easy reference.
Can I update the Basecamp documents if the template changes?
The document is created once. If you update the template in Linear, you can manually update the Basecamp document, or set up a secondary automation to keep them in sync.
