Notis

Make an email opt-out request actionable

When a private Linear comment records a clear request to stop email, Notis can unsubscribe that person from the relevant list for you.

Trigger

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).

Action

Unsubscribe Contact

This tool unsubscribes a contact from an emailoctopus list. it takes an email address as input, retrieves the contact's details using the find contact functionality, and unsubscribes the contact from the associated list.

Why this helps

A request to stop email needs a prompt next step, but capturing it in project work can leave execution easy to overlook.

  • Makes a clear opt-out request actionable from Linear.
  • Reduces manual transfer of privacy follow-ups.
  • Helps avoid leaving a known request in an issue thread.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Emailoctopus to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
  • 3In one instruction, require a clear request to stop email and identify the relevant list before unsubscribing.
  • 4Select the Linear Private Team Comment Created trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with one real opt-out request and verify the subscription state.

Questions about this workflow

Does any complaint trigger an unsubscribe?

No. Instruct Notis to act only on an explicit request to stop email.

Can the action delete the contact?

This workflow uses Unsubscribe Contact, which preserves the contact record while changing their subscription status.
