Explore the area when an issue's location changes

A location change can open up new options. Have Notis retrieve nearby places so you can explore the area without starting over.

Trigger

Public Team Issue Properties Updated

Fires when properties on a *public-team* Linear issue change (status, assignee, priority, labels, etc.). For private teams (lock icon in Linear's sidebar) use `LINEAR_PRIVATE_TEAM_ISSUE_PROPERTIES_UPDATED`.

Action

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.

Why this helps

Location changes invalidate earlier options and can lead to repeated searching with no clear starting point.

  • Get a broad view of nearby points of interest.
  • Restart local discovery from the updated issue context.
  • Reduce the manual effort of exploring unfamiliar areas.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Foursquare to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation for nearby place exploration after issue location changes.
  • 3Write one plain-language prompt asking Notis to retrieve nearby places when the issue's location context changes.
  • 4Select the Public Team Issue Properties Updated trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with a real public issue whose location has changed.

Questions about this workflow

How is this different from a focused search?

Nearby-place retrieval can include a broader mix of local points of interest, which can be useful for exploration.

Can I limit the returned place types?

Include preferences in the prompt so Notis can use them when interpreting the results.
