Notis

Bring existing photos into the right issue album

When a new public issue relates to images you have already collected, Notis can add the relevant media items to that issue's Google Photos album.

Trigger

Public Team Issue Created

Fires when a new issue is created in a Linear *public* team. For private teams (lock icon in Linear's sidebar) use `LINEAR_PRIVATE_TEAM_ISSUE_CREATED`.

Action

Batch Add Media Items

Adds one or more media items to an album in google photos.

Why this helps

Existing screenshots and reference images can remain disconnected from the issue that needs them.

  • Connects existing media with new issue context.
  • Saves the manual hunt through albums for relevant visuals.
  • Keeps an issue's reference collection together.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Google Photos to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to add relevant existing images to a matching issue album.
  • 3Describe in one plain-language instruction how to identify the related album and useful media.
  • 4Select the Linear Public Team Issue Created trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with a public-team issue that has a matching album and recognizable media.

Questions about this workflow

Does this upload new images?

No. This action adds existing Google Photos media items to an album.

What if there is no matching album?
