Capture billable work when a Linear issue is completed
Close out a billable issue and let Notis carry the work context into a FreeAgent timeslip, so time tracking takes less follow-up.
Trigger
Issue Updated Trigger
Triggered when an issue is updated. For example labels are changed, issue status is changed, etc.
Action
Create A Timeslip
Tool to create a new timeslip in FreeAgent. Use when you need to log time worked on a project task by a specific user on a given date.
Why this helps
Reconstructing billable time at the end of a busy day is unreliable and adds another administrative task.
- Capture billable work near its completion point.
- Reduce end-of-week time reconstruction.
- Keep delivery activity connected to FreeAgent time records.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and FreeAgent to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or tell Notis what completed work should become a timeslip.
- 3Write one plain-language instruction that explains how to recognize billable issues and use their work context.
- 4Select the Linear Issue Updated trigger, choose a run-report channel, and test with one completed billable issue.
Questions about this workflow
Can the automation tell billable work from other issues?
Explain the signals Notis should use in the prompt, such as a billing label or client-work context.
Will it send an invoice too?
No. This workflow creates a timeslip in FreeAgent; invoicing is a separate workflow.
