Make incoming estimated work easier to plan
Keep a capacity view closer to the work as new issues arrive.
Trigger
Issue Created Trigger
Triggered when a new issue is created.
Action
Push Data to Dataset (V1)
Tool to push data points to a Databox dataset using the v1 API. Use when you need to ingest data records into a specific dataset by providing the dataset ID and an array of records matching the dataset schema.
Why this helps
Capacity planning gets harder when estimates live in Linear but summaries are assembled elsewhere.
- Keep incoming estimated work visible in Databox.
- Spend less time copying issue details for planning.
- Review new work alongside other business metrics.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Databox to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis your goal conversationally.
- 3Ask Notis in one instruction to push new Linear issues and their relevant estimate details to your Databox capacity dataset.
- 4Pick Issue Created, choose a channel for reports, and test with one issue that has an estimate.
Questions about this workflow
Does every new issue have an estimate?
Not necessarily. Tell Notis what relevant details to record, and test with an issue that has the estimate data you need.
What is required in Databox?
Have a dataset ready for incoming capacity records and describe it in your instruction.
