Give private URL investigation comments a shared reference

An important URL detail can be buried in a private thread. Have Notis retrieve the X-Force categories for relevant comments, so teammates can continue without a separate lookup.

Trigger

Private Team Comment Created

Fires when a new comment is posted on an issue in a private Linear team (polled with the connected user's token).

Action

Get URL Category List

Tool to retrieve the complete list of URL categories from IBM X-Force Exchange. Use when you need to understand available URL classification categories used by XFE.

Why this helps

Private thread context can remain difficult to rediscover when the person who knows the classification is unavailable.

  • Make a URL classification reference available to the internal team.
  • Reduce follow-up pings for basic category context.
  • Support continuity when an issue owner is away.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and IBM X-Force Exchange to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation and state in one plain-language instruction that relevant private comments should retrieve the URL category list.
  • 3Pick Linear Private Team Comment Created and choose the run-report channel.
  • 4Test with a real private comment about a URL investigation.

Questions about this workflow

Does it inspect the URL itself?

No. It returns the URL category list as a reference, rather than analyzing a particular URL.

How are private comments accessed?

The trigger polls with the connected user's token and reflects that user's Linear visibility.
