Confirm Sponsorships, They Batch Automatically
Confirm a corporate sponsorship commitment in Linear comments and Notis immediately adds it to your Blackbaud batch - no re-entry needed.
Trigger
Public Team Comment Created
Fires when a new comment is posted on a *public-team* Linear issue. For private teams (lock icon in Linear's sidebar) use `LINEAR_PRIVATE_TEAM_COMMENT_CREATED`.
Action
Add Gifts To Batch
Add one or more gifts (donations) to an existing gift batch in Blackbaud Raiser's Edge NXT. Use this tool when you need to: - Append new gifts to an open batch for later processing - Batch multiple donations together before committing them - Add gifts with detailed information (payments, splits, custom fields) Prerequisites: - The batch must already exist (use a create batch action first if needed) - The batch must be in "open" status (not committed) - You need the batch_id (system record ID) and constituent_id (donor ID) for each gift Note: This action returns response details for all HTTP status codes (including errors). Check the status_code field in the response to determine success (200) vs errors (4xx/5xx).
Why this helps
Corporate sponsorships involve complex amounts and deliverables tracked in Linear but manually entered in Blackbaud, creating tracking debt.
- Process sponsorships faster
- Eliminate re-entry work
- Maintain accurate sponsor records
- Strengthen sponsor relationships through efficiency
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear (public team) and Blackbaud to Notis.
- 2Tell Notis: 'When I confirm a corporate sponsorship in Linear comments, add that sponsorship gift to my Blackbaud batch with the sponsor name, amount, and any deliverables mentioned.'
- 3Select 'Public Team Comment Created' as your trigger.
- 4Use Slack notifications so sponsorship is batched as you wrap up the deal.
- 5Test with a real sponsorship confirmation - it appears in Blackbaud automatically.
Questions about this workflow
How do I format sponsorship details in the comment?
Simple: 'Acme Corp $25,000 for naming rights' - Notis extracts sponsor, amount, and level. Or use bullets for multiple sponsorships at once.
Can I include sponsorship deliverables in the entry?
Yes - mention them in your comment ('Acme gets logo placement, listing, booth') and Notis can add notes to the gift record in Blackbaud.
What if sponsorship amounts are in installments?
You can enter the full amount and note 'quarterly installments' or create separate entries for each installment - Notis is flexible.
