Projects auto-organize in Box when created in Linear

Launch a project in Linear, and Notis creates the Box folder structure automatically.

Trigger

Project Created

Fires when a new Linear project is created. Covers projects in both public and private teams — polls with the connected user's token, so visibility matches what the connected user can see in Linear.

Action

Create folder

Creates a new empty folder within the specified parent folder.

Why this helps

Project folder setup is repetitive friction that delays actual work.

  • Project folders exist instantly
  • Consistent folder structure every time
  • Removes setup decision fatigue
  • Projects start uncluttered and organized

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Box to Notis.
  • 2Ask Notis 'Create a Box folder whenever I start a new Linear project' or use the portal.
  • 3Define the structure: 'Name the folder after the project, create subfolders for Research, Drafts, and Final.'
  • 4Select 'Project Created' as your trigger.
  • 5Create a test project in Linear and verify the Box folder appears with correct structure.

Questions about this workflow

Can I customize the folder structure?

Absolutely - describe the structure you want and Notis will create it with subfolders and naming conventions.

What metadata should the folder include?

Tell Notis what to add - project lead, due date, team, status, or anything that matters to you.

Can I apply this to existing projects?

Yes - run the automation retroactively on existing projects, or start fresh going forward.
