Auto-Create Release Notes Issues from Project Updates
Project updates feed release notes automatically.
Trigger
Project Update Posted
Fires when a project status update is posted on the Linear project's Updates tab. Covers projects in both public and private teams — polls with the connected user's token.
Action
Create an issue
Creates a new issue in a bitbucket repository, setting the authenticated user as reporter; ensures assignee (if provided) has repository access, and that any specified milestone, version, or component ids exist.
Why this helps
You post a project status update in Linear, but the team has to manually create a release notes issue in Bitbucket. Release communication gets fragmented.
- Release notes track changes automatically
- Status updates feed docs
- Consistent release communication
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Set up Linear and Bitbucket connections
- 2Create an automation: 'When a project update is posted in Linear, automatically create an issue in the release notes repository in Bitbucket'
- 3Use 'Project Update Posted' as your trigger
- 4Specify the release notes repository
- 5Test by posting a project update
