Why this helps

Project lookup requests can interrupt focused work and sit unanswered while someone switches tools.

  • Respond to project lookup requests with less manual searching.
  • Keep project options alongside the comment that requested them.
  • Make it easier to pick up the thread after a context switch.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and FreshBooks to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally to list FreshBooks projects when a Linear comment asks for project context.
  • 3Use one plain-language instruction asking Notis to list projects for the relevant business and report them with the comment context.
  • 4Pick the Linear Comment Received trigger, choose the reporting channel, and test with a real lookup request.
