Delete empty Cloudinary folders when issues close
When a Linear issue is closed, Notis automatically deletes any empty Cloudinary folders associated with it, keeping your structure clean.
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
Delete Folder
Tool to delete an empty asset folder. use when the folder is confirmed empty and you need to remove it.
Why this helps
Closed issues leave behind empty or obsolete folders in Cloudinary, cluttering the folder hierarchy and confusing team navigation.
- Empty folders cleaned up automatically
- Folder structure stays clean
- Easier navigation
- Reduces confusion

- 2Tell Notis 'Delete empty Cloudinary folders when a Linear issue is closed' or set trigger to Issue Properties Updated (status to closed).
- 3Notis will check if the folder is empty and delete it automatically.
- 4Choose your notification channel to confirm deletions.
- 5Test by closing a Linear issue and verify empty folders are removed from Cloudinary.
Questions about this workflow
How does Notis know which folder to delete?
Notis matches by issue ID or folder name. If your folder is named after the issue, deletion is automatic.
What if the folder is not empty?
Notis will not delete a folder with assets in it. This safety check prevents accidental data loss.
Is this permanent?
Yes, folder deletion is permanent. Notis only deletes when empty, but once deleted it cannot be recovered.
