Make an important project change easier to revisit
When a project change deserves attention, Notis can return a light, calm GIF as a reminder to pause and review the updated context.
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
Giphy Random GIF
Tool to fetch a random GIF from Giphy. Use when you need a single random GIF, optionally filtered by tag or rating. Example: 'Get a random cat GIF rated G.'
Why this helps
Unexpected project changes can create urgency without a clear moment to pause and assess them.
- Creates a gentle cue to review significant changes.
- Keeps the updated project context nearby.
- Avoids searching for a reaction in the moment.

- 1Connect Linear and Giphy to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal, or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3In one plain-language instruction, ask Notis to assess project property changes and return a random calm-check-in GIF only for updates that merit a review.
- 4Pick the Linear Project Properties Updated trigger and choose where Notis should report runs.
- 5Test with one real project update and review the result.
