Review place details from the team comment

When someone names a venue in a team comment, let Notis fetch its Foursquare details and return them where the discussion is happening.

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

Retrieve places by id

Retrieves detailed information about a specific place using its unique foursquare id (fsq id). this endpoint provides comprehensive data about a venue, including its name, address, category, ratings, tips, photos, and other relevant information. it's particularly useful when you need in-depth details about a known location, such as for displaying venue profiles or gathering specific place attributes. the endpoint should be used when you have a valid fsq id and require the most up-to-date and complete information about that place. note that this endpoint focuses on individual place details and does not provide search functionality or lists of multiple venues.

Why this helps

A simple venue suggestion can lead to scattered links and repeated questions about the basic details.

  • Bring place information beside the comment that suggested it.
  • Reduce follow-up searches for basic venue details.
  • Help teammates review one candidate with shared context.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Foursquare to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation for venue suggestions in public-team comments.
  • 3Write one plain-language prompt asking Notis to retrieve Foursquare details when a comment names a specific place.
  • 4Select the Public Team Comment Created trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with a real public-team comment that names a venue and location.

Questions about this workflow

Does the workflow add details to the Linear comment?

The prompt can ask Notis to summarize the lookup in its run report; use the channel you select to review the result.

Will it search when someone mentions a generic place type?

Tell Notis to act only when a comment identifies a specific venue.

Retrieve nearby places v3

The getnearbyplaces endpoint retrieves a list of places near a specified location, primarily supporting check-in use cases and local discovery. it returns points of interest (pois) including lower quality results not found in the standard place search, enhancing location-based experiences with additional data like photos, reviews, and tips. this endpoint is ideal for applications seeking to provide users with a comprehensive view of their surroundings, including less prominent or newer locations. while it offers a broader range of results, it may sacrifice some precision compared to more focused search endpoints. use this when you want to offer users a diverse array of nearby options, particularly for social check-in features or exploratory local recommendations.
