Trigger Builds Automatically When Issues Are Ready
Mark an issue ready in Linear, and Codemagic starts building. No tab-switching, no forgotten builds.
Trigger
Issue Updated Trigger
Triggered when an issue is updated. For example labels are changed, issue status is changed, etc.
Action
Start New Build
Tool to start a new build for an application with specified workflow and branch or tag. Use when you need to trigger a build programmatically. Either branch or tag parameter must be provided.
Why this helps
Manually triggering builds breaks focus and creates delays between declaring something ready and actually starting the build process.
- Removes context switching between Linear and Codemagic
- Builds start immediately when issues are marked ready
- Reduces forgotten or delayed builds
- Clear, visible workflow status in Linear
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Codemagic to Notis via the portal (one-time setup).
- 2Ask Notis: 'When I mark an issue ready-to-build, start a Codemagic build.' Or create this in Automations > New.
- 3Pick the trigger: 'Issue Updated in Linear' (watches for label changes).
- 4Choose a Slack or email channel where Notis reports each build start.
- 5Test by labeling a real issue 'ready-to-build' and confirm the build starts in Codemagic.
Questions about this workflow
Can I use a specific label or status instead of 'ready-to-build'?
Yes. Just tell Notis the exact label name: 'When I add the urgent label, start a build.' Notis interprets your naming.
What if an issue needs multiple labels before building?
Notis can watch for complex conditions: 'Start builds only when issues have both ready AND reviewed labels.' Just describe what you need.
How long does it take from marking ready to the build starting?
Usually under 30 seconds. Linear polls every minute, so sometimes a few seconds more, but it's fast.
