Know Instantly When Work Lands on Your Plate
Issue assigned to you? A device signal fires before you even check email. Stay in the moment.
Trigger
Issue Updated Trigger
Triggered when an issue is updated. For example labels are changed, issue status is changed, etc.
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
Work assignments hidden in email, Slack, or Linear notifications cause missed deadlines and anxiety about what you're forgetting.
- Immediate signal when work lands -- no notification-checking loop
- Device alert more memorable than text notification
- Reduces assignment-anxiety (you'll see them)
- Control when and how you're interrupted (one device signal, not ten alerts)
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Bolt iot accounts to Notis (one-time setup).
- 2Ask Notis: 'When a Linear issue is assigned to me, trigger a digital write on my Bolt device to signal new work' or use Automations > New.
- 3Specify which device and pin, and the signal type (e.g., 'turn pin 4 high on my office device').
- 4Choose your report channel: Slack, email, or app.
- 5Test by assigning yourself an issue in Linear and confirming the device signal fires.
Questions about this workflow
Will this fire for every issue assigned to anyone, or just me?
Just you. Notis logs in as your account, so it only triggers when the assignee is you.
What if I'm assigned multiple issues at once?
Each assignment will trigger the signal. You can refine to only high-priority or specific projects if it gets noisy.
Can the signal be different for different types of assignments?
Yes -- you can create multiple automations, one per project or label, each with its own device signal.
What if I'm in deep focus and don't want to be interrupted?
You can temporarily pause the automation in Notis, or use a toggle to disable it during focus blocks.

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
Tool to set a digital pin high or low on a specified bolt device. use when controlling actuators or leds via digital output.
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).
