Refresh Classroom assignment instructions from Linear

Refine the task in Linear and have Notis update the matching student assignment, so learners see the latest instructions where they work.

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

Patch Coursework

Tool to update fields of a coursework. use when you need to modify specific details of an existing coursework after confirming which fields to update.

Why this helps

Students can keep following old assignment instructions when changes are recorded only in the issue tracker.

  • Keep assignment expectations aligned with the latest plan.
  • Avoid duplicating edits across planning and teaching tools.
  • Reduce questions caused by outdated student instructions.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Google Classroom to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to build it conversationally.
  • 3Give Notis one instruction to update the matching coursework when a public-team issue changes its student-facing assignment instructions.
  • 4Select the Linear Public Team Issue Properties Updated trigger and choose a run-report channel.
  • 5Test with one real instruction change and review the coursework.

Questions about this workflow

Will any issue property change overwrite assignment text?

Limit the prompt to changes that affect the student-facing instructions and the coursework tied to that issue.

What if the issue is in a private team?

Use the private-team issue-properties trigger for issues in private teams.
