Give each new Linear project a Knack portfolio entry
Start every initiative with a clear place in your Knack portfolio while Linear remains the home for project execution.
Trigger
Project Created
Fires when a new Linear project is created. Covers projects in both public and private teams — polls with the connected user's token, so visibility matches what the connected user can see in Linear.
Action
Create object record
Tool to create a new record in a specific Knack object. Use when you need to add new data to a Knack database object. Requires object-based API key authentication.
Why this helps
A new initiative can be visible to the delivery team but absent from the broader portfolio view until someone remembers to enter it.
- Make new initiatives visible in portfolio records early.
- Reduce onboarding steps for each project.
- Keep project context available for non-delivery workflows.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Knack to Notis once.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to add new Linear projects to Knack.
- 3Write one plain-language prompt describing the portfolio entry and the project context it should include.
- 4Select Project Created and choose a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one real project and review its Knack entry.
