Standups Organize Themselves - Event Types Auto-Generate
New standup topic in Linear? Its event type for team alignment is already waiting in Cal. Standup prep is instant.
Trigger
Issue Created Trigger
Triggered when a new issue is created.
Action
Create team event type
Creates a new event type for a specified team in cal.com; ensure `teamid`, any provided `scheduleid`, `hosts.userid`, and `destinationcalendar` details are valid and accessible.
Why this helps
Standup-worthy issues arrive but nobody's coordinating actual standup time. Issues stay isolated. Standup conversations happen ad-hoc in Slack.
- Standup event types are ready before standup happens, eliminating last-minute scramble
- Gives standup a clear booking calendar instead of relying on Slack coordination
- Regular sync cadence emerges from structured booking rather than chaotic ad-hoc invites
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Cal integrations
- 2Tell Notis: 'When an issue is created with the standup label, create a team event type in Cal called Daily Standup [Date]'
- 3Define standup timing (daily at 9am, 3x per week, etc.) in your instruction
- 4Set the trigger to Linear Issue Created (with standup label filter)
- 5Test by creating a standup-labeled issue and verify the Cal event type appears with your standup cadence
Questions about this workflow
Should standup issues create one event type per topic, or reuse one?
Tell Notis: 'Always create a standup event type' or 'Create one event type per standup date and put all topics in there'.
How do people know to book the standup slot?
Share the Cal link or event type with your team once. Notis will create the same type repeatedly, so it becomes routine.
What happens if we skip a day?
Event type creation is trigger-based, not calendar-based. If no standup issue is created, no event type appears. You control the trigger.
