Find grocery retailers when a work issue adds a location

Let a location added to an issue cue a nearby retailer lookup, so research does not become another open tab.

Trigger

Issue Updated Trigger

Triggered when an issue is updated. For example labels are changed, issue status is changed, etc.

Action

Get Nearby Retailers

Get nearby retailers by postal code + country code. attempts prod first then falls back to dev; errors from prod bubble up if both fail.

Why this helps

Location-based errands often require a separate search that can interrupt the task already underway.

  • Start retailer research from context already added to an issue.
  • Reduce search switching when coordinating a location-based task.
  • Get nearby options without placing an order.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Instacart to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis for an issue-based retailer lookup.
  • 3Write one instruction asking Notis to find nearby grocery retailers when an issue update includes valid postal code and country details.
  • 4Select the Linear Issue Updated trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test with one real issue update containing a valid location and check the returned options.

Questions about this workflow

What location format does the action use?

The retailer lookup takes a postal code and country code. Ask Notis to use valid values present in the issue context.

Can it also create a grocery list?

This workflow looks up nearby retailers. Creating a list requires selecting the shopping-list action instead.
