Keep design timing in sync
A changed milestone should be easy to spot in the design space. Have Notis post the date update where collaborators are already reviewing.
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
Add a comment to a file
Posts a new comment to a figma file or branch, optionally replying to an existing root comment (replies cannot be nested); `region height` and `region width` in `client meta` must be positive if defining a comment region.
Why this helps
When project dates move, founders may have to remember to tell design collaborators separately.
- Makes milestone changes visible in the design workspace.
- Cuts out a manual follow-up message.
- Helps the team reconsider design timing while the change is fresh.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Figma to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal, or ask Notis conversationally to create one.
- 3Tell Notis in a single instruction to recognize a changed project target date, find the relevant Figma file, and post a short comment with the new timing.
- 4Choose the Linear Project Properties Updated trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one real project date change and verify the comment is clear.
Questions about this workflow
Will this change a date inside Figma?
No. It adds a comment to the relevant Figma file so collaborators can see the updated timing.
Can it handle private projects?
The project update trigger covers projects visible to the connected Linear user, including private team projects.

Add a reaction to a comment
Posts a specified emoji reaction to an existing comment in a figma file or branch, requiring valid file key and comment id.
Comment Received Trigger

Create a webhook
Creates a figma webhook for a `team id` to send post notifications for an `event type` to a publicly accessible https `endpoint`; an initial ping is sent unless `status` is `paused`.
Issue Created Trigger
Triggered when a new issue is created.
Create dev resources
Creates and attaches multiple uniquely-urled development resources to specified figma nodes, up to 10 per node.
Issue Updated Trigger
Triggered when an issue is updated. For example labels are changed, issue status is changed, etc.
Create, modify, or delete variables
Manages variables, collections, modes, and their values in a figma file via batch create/update/delete operations; use temporary ids to link new related items in one request and ensure `variablemodevalues` match the target variable's `resolvedtype`.
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).
Delete a comment
Deletes a specific comment from a figma file or branch, provided the authenticated user is the original author of the comment.
Private Team Issue Created
Fires when a new issue appears in a private Linear team (polled with the connected user's token).
Delete a reaction
Deletes a specific emoji reaction from a comment in a figma file; the user must have originally created the reaction.
Private Team Issue Properties Updated
Fires when properties on an issue change in a private Linear team (polled with the connected user's token).
Delete a webhook
Permanently deletes an existing webhook, identified by its unique `webhook id`; this operation is irreversible.
