Honor clear opt-out requests recorded in Linear
When a public-team comment records an explicit request to stop email, Notis can unsubscribe that contact from the specified list.
Trigger
Public Team Comment Created
Fires when a new comment is posted on a *public-team* Linear issue. For private teams (lock icon in Linear's sidebar) use `LINEAR_PRIVATE_TEAM_COMMENT_CREATED`.
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 preference request recorded in an issue comment needs a reliable follow-through, even when the team is focused on delivery work.
- Makes explicit opt-outs actionable from issue comments.
- Reduces manual steps for subscription preference updates.
- Keeps the change connected to its recorded context.
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 an explicit stop-email request and clear contact details before unsubscribing from the specified list.
- 4Select the Linear Public Team Comment Created trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one real opt-out request and verify the result.
Questions about this workflow
Does this act on every public comment?
No. The instruction should explicitly limit action to clear requests to stop email.
Is deleting a contact the same action?
No. This workflow unsubscribes the contact; it does not delete their record.
