Keep launch update subscribers together when dates shift
If a revised target date prompts people to request launch news, Notis can add those opted-in contacts to the right list as you update the project.
Trigger
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.
Action
Create Contact
This tool creates a new contact in emailoctopus. the tool will add a contact to a specified list with the provided information.
Why this helps
A shifting launch date can create new follow-ups just as attention is pulled back into planning.
- Connects schedule changes with the audience waiting for news.
- Keeps explicit requests in the launch list.
- Reduces the chance of losing a new follow-up among project edits.
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, restrict additions to contacts who explicitly request updates after a target-date change.
- 4Select the Linear Project Properties Updated trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with a real date-change update and an opted-in contact.
Questions about this workflow
Does changing the date subscribe existing contacts again?
Tell Notis to add only newly identified, opted-in contacts and use the relevant list.
What if the project date changes without a new subscriber?
The instruction should make clear that no contact is added unless a new, explicit request is present.
