Categorize translation strings from Linear updates
When a Linear update identifies strings that need a shared category, Notis can assign the corresponding Crowdin label and save a manual organization pass.
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
Assign Label to Strings
Tool to assign the specified label to provided string ids in a project. use after creating the label or verifying string ids to categorize content.
Why this helps
Relevant strings can remain uncategorized when the person who spots the need is working in Linear.
- Categorizes the identified strings in Crowdin.
- Links a product-side update to practical localization organization.
- Reduces an extra back-and-forth for routine labeling.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Crowdin to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3Give Notis one instruction to assign an existing Crowdin label to identified strings when a Linear issue update requests categorization.
- 4Choose Linear Issue Properties Updated and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with a real update that identifies the strings and confirm the label assignment in Crowdin.
Questions about this workflow
Does the label need to exist first?
Yes. The Crowdin Assign Label to Strings action uses an existing label and the relevant string IDs.
Can this create a new label too?
Creating a label is a separate action. This workflow is for assigning an existing label to identified strings.
