Notis

Keep resolution context in Intercom

Make completed customer-impacting work easier to recognize during the next conversation.

Trigger

Issue Updated Trigger

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

Action

Update a contact

You can update an existing contact (ie. user or lead).

Why this helps

Resolved engineering work may never make it back to the customer record, so the next support reply starts from stale information.

  • Keep support context current after issue resolution.
  • Avoid searching Linear during a customer conversation.
  • Make the next follow-up easier to pick up.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Intercom to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation through the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
  • 3In a single plain-language instruction, ask Notis to update the relevant Intercom contact with a concise resolution status when a customer-impacting issue is resolved.
  • 4Choose Linear Issue Updated as the trigger and set a run-report channel.
  • 5Test on one real resolved issue and review the contact update.

Questions about this workflow

Can the automation update any contact field?

Ask Notis to update an appropriate existing Intercom contact detail using the issue context. The exact supported update depends on the available contact fields and integration capabilities.

Will it update unrelated contacts?

Tell Notis to update only the contact clearly associated with the customer-impacting issue.
