Understand the link before you pick up the issue

Get a quick read on the public page linked in a new issue, without opening another tab and figuring out what kind of source it is.

Trigger

Issue Created Trigger

Triggered when a new issue is created.

Action

Diffbot Analyze

Tool to automatically determine a page's content type and route it to the appropriate extraction api. use when you have only a url and need diffbot to choose the right extractor.

Why this helps

A bare URL in a new issue forces you to stop and inspect the page before you can decide what to do next.

  • Identify the likely content type of a linked page.
  • Bring extracted page information into the issue review flow.
  • Reduce tab switching when triaging new work.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Diffbot once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
  • 3In plain language, ask Notis to analyze public URLs in new issues and summarize the returned page data.
  • 4Pick the Linear Issue Created trigger, then choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real issue that contains a public URL.

Questions about this workflow

Does this work when an issue has no URL?

The instruction can tell Notis to skip analysis when no public URL is present.

Does Analyze extract every kind of page in the same way?

Analyze determines the likely page type and routes it to an appropriate extractor. The returned data depends on the page and extractor.
