Pause Lemlist outreach when a customer issue is opened

If a prospect is dealing with a reported customer issue, pause the routine sequence while your team addresses it.

Trigger

Public Team Issue Created

Fires when a new issue is created in a Linear *public* team. For private teams (lock icon in Linear's sidebar) use `LINEAR_PRIVATE_TEAM_ISSUE_CREATED`.

Action

Pause Lead

Tool to pause a lead in all campaigns or a specific campaign. use when you want to temporarily halt outreach to a lead.

Why this helps

Support or product issues can be created in Linear while outreach continues on autopilot, creating an uncomfortable experience for the same person.

  • Pauses the affected lead while the issue is reviewed.
  • Helps customer care take precedence over routine sales follow-up.
  • Reduces manual coordination between issue handling and outreach.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Lemlist to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations or tell Notis conversationally.
  • 3Use one instruction asking Notis to pause the matching Lemlist lead when a new Linear issue identifies a customer problem for that person.
  • 4Select the Linear Public Team Issue Created trigger and choose run-report delivery.
  • 5Test with a sample issue and verify the affected lead is paused.

Questions about this workflow

Will every new issue pause a lead?

The instruction should limit the action to issues that identify a customer problem for a person who is also an active Lemlist lead.

When should outreach resume?

Review the issue outcome and resume the lead when the customer situation is resolved and outreach is appropriate.
