Auto-Backup Attachments to GCS on Issue Update

Every version matters. Backup updated files to GCS automatically.

Trigger

Issue Updated Trigger

Triggered when an issue is updated. For example labels are changed, issue status is changed, etc.

Action

Create Export Google Cloud Storage Task

Tool to create a task to export files to a google cloud storage bucket. use after conversion when you need to store results directly into gcs. ensure service account credentials have the proper permissions.

Why this helps

Files get attached to issues and updated over time, but there is no automatic version control or redundancy. Losing a file update means lost work.

  • Every file attachment update automatically backed up to GCS with version history
  • Retrieve any previous version of a file anytime
  • Complete audit trail of all file updates within an issue
  • Redundancy prevents data loss if Linear attachments are accidentally deleted
  • Eliminate anxiety about losing edits or previous file versions

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Google Cloud Storage to Notis (one-time setup)
  • 2Create a new automation with the prompt: 'When new files are attached to an issue, backup them to my GCS bucket with timestamps for version history'
  • 3Select 'Issue Updated' as your trigger
  • 4Specify a GCS folder structure like 'versions/[project]/[issue-id]' to organize by issue
  • 5Test by attaching a file to an issue and verify it appears in GCS

Questions about this workflow

Will old versions be overwritten, or kept?

Notis uses timestamps, so every version is kept. GCS folders for each issue will contain the full version history.

Does this only trigger on new attachments, or file updates too?

Both. When a new file is attached or an existing one is replaced, it backs up automatically.

Can I limit this to only certain projects or issue types?

Yes. Specify in your prompt, like 'only backup files from Design and Content issues'.
