Repair a lost Diffbot reference from the issue queue

When someone reports a lost identifier, resolve it to its canonical counterpart and return the mapping for the team to review.

Trigger

Issue Created Trigger

Triggered when a new issue is created.

Action

Resolve Lost ID

Tool to resolve lost ids in the knowledge graph. use when you need to map a lost identifier to its canonical counterpart for data consistency.

Why this helps

A stale identifier can make an otherwise useful knowledge graph reference difficult to reuse consistently.

  • Look up a canonical counterpart for a lost ID.
  • Keep the lookup tied to the issue reporting it.
  • Improve consistency when teams reuse knowledge graph references.

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.
  • 3Tell Notis to resolve a Diffbot knowledge graph ID only when a new issue explicitly provides one, then report the returned canonical ID for review.
  • 4Pick the Linear Issue Created trigger, then choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real issue containing an identifier that is appropriate to resolve.

Questions about this workflow

Will it guess an ID if the issue does not include one?

No. The instruction should require an explicitly supplied lost identifier before calling the resolver.

Does the result automatically update Linear records?

This workflow reports the resolution for review. The listed Diffbot action resolves the ID and does not update Linear.
