Route critical Linear issues into incident response
Make a meaningful priority change a clear handoff into incident response, without relying on someone to notice and copy the issue.
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
Create Incident V2
Tool to create a new incident in incident.io using the V2 API. Use when you need to report and track an operational issue or outage. Requires at minimum an idempotency_key and visibility setting. Optionally specify severity, incident type, custom fields, role assignments, and other attributes.
Why this helps
A high-impact issue is marked urgent in Linear, yet incident response starts late because no one notices the priority change.
- Turns an explicit priority signal into an incident record.
- Cuts down on monitoring and manual escalation steps.
- Preserves the issue's context for responders.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and incident.io to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation or ask Notis to create an incident when a public-team issue changes to your chosen critical priority.
- 3Select the Public Team Issue Properties Updated trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
- 4Test with a real issue priority update and verify that the incident is created only for the intended priority.
Questions about this workflow
Can I decide which priority means critical?
Yes. State the priority rule in the plain-language automation prompt.
What if the team is private?
Use the private-team issue properties trigger instead, provided the connected Linear account can see that team.
