Check Fortnite island plays from Linear comments

Trigger

Comment Received Trigger

Triggered when a comment is received.

Action

Get Island Plays

Tool to retrieve the number of plays (session starts) for a Fortnite island. Use when you need play metrics for a specific island and time interval.

Why this helps

Small follow-up requests buried in issue comments are easy to miss or leave waiting for a manual lookup.

  • Turn a comment-based request into a plays lookup.
  • Use the supplied island code and interval for a focused result.
  • Keep the response connected to the run report.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Epic Games once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to use a comment's island code and interval to fetch plays and summarize the result.
  • 4Pick the Linear Comment Received trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real comment that contains an island code and interval.
