Explore federal contracts from a new issue
When an issue captures a capability or customer need, have Notis search Highergov contract listings for useful context.
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
Get Contracts
Tool to retrieve federal contract data. Use when you need to list contracts with optional filters like last_modified_date or search_id.
Why this helps
Early market research gets skipped when contract searches feel like a separate project from capturing the original need.
- Start a contract search while the original need is clear.
- Get a focused summary of potentially related records.
- Reduce manual copying between project tracking and market research.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Highergov to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to run this in plain language.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to search Highergov contracts using the new issue's capability or service description.
- 4Choose the Public Team Issue Created trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with a real issue and review the matching contract records.
Questions about this workflow
Can this run for private team issues?
For private teams, select the matching private-team issue trigger instead of the public-team trigger.
Does a contract match mean we should pursue it?
No. Use the results as research context and verify fit before making a pursuit decision.
