Visual Project Status at a Glance
Project status update posted in Linear, and your device LED reflects the new status. Progress visible without opening the app.
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
Bolt IoT Digital Write
Tool to set a digital pin high or low on a specified bolt device. use when controlling actuators or leds via digital output.
Why this helps
Project milestones and status updates get lost in the backlog. You forget to check progress and miss deadline warnings.
- Project milestones immediately visible on device
- Status updates don't disappear into timelines
- Quick visual check of key project progress
- Device LED acts as progress dashboard
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Bolt iot to Notis (one-time setup).
- 2Ask Notis: 'When a project status update is posted, update the LED on my Bolt device to reflect the new status' or use Automations > New.
- 3Map statuses to LED states (e.g., 'green=on-track, yellow=at-risk, red=blocked').
- 4Choose report channel for status summaries: Slack or email.
- 5Test by posting a project status update in Linear and confirming the LED reflects the new status.
Questions about this workflow
How do I map project statuses to LED colors?
Tell Notis your color scheme (e.g., 'green means on-track, yellow means at-risk'). It will set the LED accordingly.
What if I have multiple projects?
Each project update triggers its own LED change by default. You can filter to key projects only if the LED changes feel too frequent.
Can I use different devices for different projects?
Yes -- create separate automations: one for 'Project A updates to Device 1' and 'Project B updates to Device 2'.
What if a status update is posted but the project status doesn't change?
The LED updates based on the content of the status update itself (Notis reads what the update says). It doesn't require a property change.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Linear to Bolt iot. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Linear triggers
Bolt iot actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Analog Read
Tool to read the analog value from a specified pin on a bolt device. use when you need sensor readings (0–1023) after confirming the device is online.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Bolt IoT Digital Write
Tool to set a digital pin high or low on a specified bolt device. use when controlling actuators or leds via digital output.
Comment Received Trigger
Triggered when a comment is received.
Check Bolt device online status
Tool to check whether a specified bolt device is online. use when you need to verify device connectivity before sending commands (e.g., control signals). example: 'check if device bolt1234567 is online.'
Issue Created Trigger
Triggered when a new issue is created.
Bolt IoT Digital Write

Issue Updated Trigger
Triggered when an issue is updated. For example labels are changed, issue status is changed, etc.
Bolt IoT Serial Read
Tool to read incoming serial data from a bolt device. use when you've initialized uart with serialbegin and need to retrieve serial data.
Private Team Comment Created
Fires when a new comment is posted on an issue in a private Linear team (polled with the connected user's token).
Bolt IoT Serial Write
Tool to send serial data to a bolt device. use when you need to transmit ascii data over uart after initializing uart with serialbegin.
Private Team Issue Created
Fires when a new issue appears in a private Linear team (polled with the connected user's token).
Bolt IoT Serial Write & Read
Tool to send serial data and read the response on a bolt device. use when you need to transmit ascii data over uart and capture its reply immediately.
Private Team Issue Properties Updated
Fires when properties on an issue change in a private Linear team (polled with the connected user's token).
