Open a Discord thread for every new Linear issue
Instead of one noisy channel where everything blurs together, Notis creates a focused Discord thread for each new Linear issue, so conversation stays attached to the work it belongs to.
Trigger
Issue Created Trigger
Triggered when a new issue is created.
Action
Create new thread in channel
Creates a new thread in a text or announcement discord channel; requires a 'name' and optionally other details (e.g., 'auto archive duration', an initial 'message') in the request body.
Why this helps
When every issue is discussed in one channel, threads of conversation tangle together and finding the right one later is exhausting.
- Keep each issue's discussion in its own tidy space
- Find past conversations without scrolling through channel noise
- Lower the cognitive load of parsing one overloaded channel
- Give teammates an obvious place to reply about a specific ticket
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Discordbot to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an Automation named Discord thread per Linear issue.
- 3Write the prompt: When a new Linear issue is created, open a Discord thread named after it for discussion.
- 4Choose the Linear Issue Created trigger and pick the Discord channel where threads and run reports appear.
- 5Create a test issue and confirm a matching thread opens in Discord.
Questions about this workflow
What does the thread get named?
Notis names it from the issue by default. You can specify a naming style in your instruction if you prefer.
Can it drop the issue summary into the thread?
Yes, ask Notis to post a summary as the first message and it will.
Do threads auto-archive?
They follow the channel's normal Discord archive settings unless you specify otherwise in the prompt.

Linear triggers
Discordbot actions
Comment Received Trigger
Triggered when a comment is received.
Add recipient to group channel
Adds a user to a discord group direct message (dm) channel.
Issue Created Trigger
Triggered when a new issue is created.
Update guild member information
Adds a user (who is not already a member) to a guild using their `access token` (which must have `guilds.join` scope), optionally setting nickname, roles, mute/deaf status, or flags.
Issue Updated Trigger
Triggered when an issue is updated. For example labels are changed, issue status is changed, etc.
Assign role to guild member
Assigns a role to a guild member, provided the bot has 'manage roles' permission in the guild and the role to be assigned is hierarchically lower than the bot's highest role.
Private Team Comment Created
Fires when a new comment is posted on an issue in a private Linear team (polled with the connected user's token).
Add reaction to message
Adds an emoji reaction from the authenticated user/bot to a specific message in a discord channel; does not return information about existing reactions.
Private Team Issue Created
Fires when a new issue appears in a private Linear team (polled with the connected user's token).
Add or update thread member
Adds a user to a specific, unarchived thread; the user must have access to the thread's parent channel, and for private threads, the bot must already be a member.
Private Team Issue Properties Updated
Fires when properties on an issue change in a private Linear team (polled with the connected user's token).
Modify guild ban settings
Permanently bans a user from a discord guild, optionally deleting their recent messages (specify deletion period in seconds or days, not both).
Project Created
Fires when a new Linear project is created. Covers projects in both public and private teams — polls with the connected user's token, so visibility matches what the connected user can see in Linear.
Bulk ban users in guild with message deletion option
Bans up to 200 users from a discord guild, optionally deleting their recent messages; the bot must have 'ban members' permission in the guild, and this action is irreversible.
Project Properties Updated
Fires when properties on a Linear project change (status, lead, target date, priority, etc.). Covers projects in both public and private teams — polls with the connected user's token.
Bulk delete messages in channel
Atomically bulk deletes messages in a discord channel for moderation or maintenance; deletion may not be instantaneous and messages are unrecoverable.
