Keep event category names aligned with project updates

A project update can explain a change in direction. Use it to refresh the matching Expofp category while the new language is clear.

Trigger

Project Update Posted

Fires when a project status update is posted on the Linear project's Updates tab. Covers projects in both public and private teams — polls with the connected user's token.

Action

Update Category

Tool to update an existing category. use when you have the category id and a valid api token. example: "update category #1 name to 'category blue'."

Why this helps

When project language changes, an older category label may cause unnecessary questions during event handoffs.

  • Refresh event labels when project direction changes.
  • Keep handoff language consistent across tools.
  • Reduce questions caused by outdated categories.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Expofp to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or describe it to Notis in plain language.
  • 3Tell Notis when a posted project update should rename a related Expofp category and provide the intended label.
  • 4Select the Project Update Posted trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with a real project update and valid Expofp category ID and API token.
