Get SMS Alerts for Issue Escalations
High-priority issues buried in email get missed. This automation sends SMS alerts when any Linear issue is marked high priority, cutting through email noise.
Trigger
Public Team Issue Properties Updated
Fires when properties on a *public-team* Linear issue change (status, assignee, priority, labels, etc.). For private teams (lock icon in Linear's sidebar) use `LINEAR_PRIVATE_TEAM_ISSUE_PROPERTIES_UPDATED`.
Action
Create SMS Campaign
This tool allows you to create a new sms campaign in brevo. you can specify the campaign name, sender, content, recipients (by providing list ids, exclusion list ids, or segment ids), and optionally schedule the campaign for a specific time. you can also enable unicode characters, add an organization prefix, and include unsubscribe instructions.
Why this helps
Critical issues are marked high priority in Linear but emails are ignored - team members don't see escalations until it's too late.
- High-priority issues trigger SMS alerts instantly
- Team responds faster to escalations
- SMS cuts through email fatigue for critical work

- 3Select 'Public Team Issue Properties Updated' as trigger
- 4Specify who receives the SMS alerts
- 5Test by changing a Linear issue to high priority - SMS arrives instantly
Questions about this workflow
Does this apply to all priority changes or just escalations to high?
You control it - tell Notis to alert only for high priority, or for any priority change above a certain threshold.
Who receives the SMS?
You choose the team members or role-based recipients - specify contacts when setting up the automation.
Can I add different messages for different severity levels?
Yes - tell Notis to use different SMS content for high vs critical priorities, for example.
