Keep Customers Updated as Work Progresses

Customers want to see progress. When an issue's status changes in a public team, Notis automatically broadcasts the update so customers know what's happening.

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

Trigger Broadcast

Tool to manually trigger a broadcast. use when you need to override the default audience and provide personalization data after confirming the broadcast id.

Why this helps

Issues progress from backlog to in-progress to done in Linear, but customers don't see the movement, making progress invisible and creating uncertainty.

  • Show customers your progress in real-time
  • Build confidence through visible momentum
  • Keep customers informed without manual updates
  • Celebrate progress with customers as you hit milestones

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Customerio to Notis.
  • 2Create a new automation called 'Status Update Broadcast'.
  • 3Write: 'When an issue in a public Linear team's status is updated, automatically trigger a Customerio broadcast with the message "We've updated the status of [issue-title] from [old-status] to [new-status]." Include any status notes from the team member who made the change.'
  • 4Select Public Team Issue Properties Updated as your trigger and choose Slack for notifications.
  • 5Test by changing an issue's status in a public team and verify the broadcast fires in Customerio.

Questions about this workflow

Will this announce every tiny status change?

It can, but you can filter in your prompt: for example, 'only broadcast status changes for issues labeled "customer-facing" or "high-priority"'.

What statuses should I broadcast about?

Most impactful are: 'in-progress' (work started), 'in-review' (approaching done), and 'shipped' or 'resolved' (completed). You can specify which in your prompt.

Can I add a personal note to automated status broadcasts?

Yes. Modify your prompt: 'if a status change comment includes a note from the team, include that context in the broadcast message'.
