Create Scale AI NER tasks from Linear issues

When you need entities pulled out of text, the request often starts as a Linear issue and then waits. Notis opens a named entity recognition task in Scale AI as soon as the issue is filed, so extraction begins without a manual handoff.

Trigger

Issue Created Trigger

Triggered when a new issue is created.

Action

Create Named Entity Recognition Task

Tool to create a named entity recognition task for labelers to highlight text entity mentions. Use when you need to extract and label entities such as people, organizations, or locations from text.

Why this helps

NER requests written in Linear wait for someone to manually open the Scale AI task, delaying text extraction.

  • Entity extraction starts the moment the issue is filed
  • No manual task creation between planning and labeling
  • Text annotation requests stop stalling in the backlog

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Scale AI to Notis one time from the portal
  • 2Ask Notis for your portal link and open Automations, then New Automation
  • 3Write the instruction: when a Linear text-extraction issue is created, open a Scale AI named entity recognition task
  • 4Choose the Linear Issue Created trigger and a channel for run reports
  • 5File a sample issue and confirm the NER task appears in Scale AI

Questions about this workflow

Can I define which entities to extract?

Yes. Describe the entity types in your prompt, such as people, organizations, or locations, and Notis carries that into the task.

Does it act on all issues?

Only the ones matching your description, so unrelated issues are ignored.

Supported Triggers and Actions

Notis builds workflows that link Linear to Scale ai. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

Linear triggers

Scale ai actions

Comment Received Trigger

Triggered when a comment is received.

TriggerInstant

Add Studio Assignments

Tool to add project assignments to team members in Scale AI Studio. Use when you need to assign specific projects to team members by their email addresses. This action creates new assignments for the specified team members and projects.

ActionInstant

Issue Created Trigger

Triggered when a new issue is created.

TriggerInstant

Add Task Tags

Tool to add tags to an existing task. Use when you need to tag or categorize tasks for organization and filtering. Automatically avoids duplicate tags.

ActionInstant

Issue Updated Trigger

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

TriggerInstant

Create Batch

Tool to create a new batch within a project. Use when you need to group multiple tasks together for organizational and processing purposes.

ActionInstant

Private Team Comment Created

Fires when a new comment is posted on an issue in a private Linear team (polled with the connected user's token).

TriggerPolling

Create Document Transcription Task

Tool to create a document transcription task where workers transcribe and annotate information from single or multi-page documents. Use when you need to extract structured data from documents like invoices, forms, or screenshots.

ActionInstant

Private Team Issue Created

Fires when a new issue appears in a private Linear team (polled with the connected user's token).

TriggerPolling

Create Image Annotation Task

Tool to create an image annotation task where annotators label images with vector geometric shapes (box, polygon, line, point, cuboid, ellipse). Use when you need to annotate objects in images with bounding boxes, polygons, or other geometric annotations.

ActionInstant

Private Team Issue Properties Updated

Fires when properties on an issue change in a private Linear team (polled with the connected user's token).

TriggerPolling

Create Lidar Annotation Task

Tool to create a lidar annotation task where annotators mark objects with 3D cuboids in 3D space. Use when you need to annotate LIDAR frame sequences with 3D object detection.

ActionInstant

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.

TriggerPolling

Create LiDAR Segmentation Task

Tool to create a LiDAR segmentation task where annotators assign semantic class labels to individual LiDAR points. Use when you need to annotate point cloud data with object classes such as vehicles, pedestrians, roads, buildings, etc. Either 'project' or 'batch' must be provided in the request.

ActionInstant

Project Properties Updated

Fires when properties on a Linear project change (status, lead, target date, priority, etc.). Covers projects in both public and private teams — polls with the connected user's token.

TriggerPolling

Create Named Entity Recognition Task

Tool to create a named entity recognition task for labelers to highlight text entity mentions. Use when you need to extract and label entities such as people, organizations, or locations from text.
