Notis

Bring string context into a localization review

When an issue asks for more context about a translation string, Notis can retrieve its Crowdin details to help the review move forward.

Trigger

Issue Updated Trigger

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

Action

Get String

Tool to retrieve details of a specific string in a crowdin project. use after confirming the project and string ids to fetch its metadata.

Why this helps

Reviewers lose momentum when they need to leave an issue and search for a string's details elsewhere.

  • Retrieves details for the string under review.
  • Reduces context switching during issue triage.
  • Makes string context easier to bring into the review workflow.

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.
  • 3Write one instruction to retrieve Crowdin string details when a Linear issue requests string context.
  • 4Select a suitable Linear issue update trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with a real review issue that identifies a Crowdin string.

Questions about this workflow

Does this workflow edit the string?

No. The Crowdin Get String action retrieves details; editing a string uses a separate action.

What information does the issue need to include?

Include enough context to identify the Crowdin project and the string whose details are needed.
