Auto-sync private team issue changes to Breathe HR
Private team issues track important changes, but Breathe HR never hears about them. When issue properties change in private Linear teams, Notis creates change requests so your restricted org updates are recorded.
Trigger
Private Team Issue Properties Updated
Fires when properties on an issue change in a private Linear team (polled with the connected user's token).
Action
Create Employee Change Request
Tool to create a change request for an employee field. Use when you need to update employee information such as job title, department, or salary.
Why this helps
Changes happen in private Linear teams, but your official org records in Breathe HR stay outdated because automations do not monitor private visibility. Restricted teams feel invisible in your HRIS.
- Private team changes are captured and documented in Breathe HR
- Restricted teams are no longer invisible in your official records
- Change requests track all org updates, regardless of team visibility
- Complete audit trail for all team structure changes
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Ensure Linear and Breathe HR are connected to Notis.
- 2Create a new automation called 'Sync private team issue changes to employee records'.
- 3Write the prompt: 'When an issue property changes in a private Linear team (such as assignee, priority, or status), create a change request in Breathe HR documenting the change for the affected employee or team.'
- 4Select trigger 'Private Team Issue Properties Updated' and set your notification channel.
- 5Test by changing an issue property in a private Linear team and verify a change request is created in Breathe HR.
Questions about this workflow
What properties should trigger a change request?
Your prompt specifies this. For example, 'assignee changes trigger a change request, but priority or status changes do not' or 'all property changes create a record.'
What if the same issue has many property changes?
Each change could trigger a separate change request, or you could adjust your prompt to batch them, for example, 'only create a change request if the assignee changed.'
Do public team issue changes also need syncing?
Yes, you would create a separate automation using the 'Public Team Issue Properties Updated' trigger with a similar prompt to cover public team changes.
