Auto-Create Feature Branches When Assigned
Branches spawn the moment work is assigned.
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 a branch
Creates a new branch in a bitbucket repository from a target commit hash; the branch name must be unique, adhere to bitbucket's naming conventions, and not include the 'refs/heads/' prefix.
Why this helps
When a feature is tagged or assigned to someone in Linear, developers have to manually create a matching branch in Bitbucket. This context-switch pulls them from deep work.
- Developers start coding immediately
- Branch naming consistency
- Skip manual setup overhead
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Set up Linear and Bitbucket connections in the Notis portal
- 2Create a new automation and describe what you want: 'When a feature label is added to a Linear issue, create a matching feature branch in Bitbucket'
- 3Notis will interpret the label change as 'Public Team Issue Properties Updated'
- 4Choose your repository and notification channel
- 5Test by tagging an issue as a feature and watch the branch appear in Bitbucket
Questions about this workflow
Can I customize the branch naming?
Yes. Specify your naming convention in the automation prompt, like 'feature/{issue-name}' or 'feat/{issue-id}'.
What if the branch already exists?
Notis will skip creation if the branch name is already taken, preventing conflicts and duplicates.
