Start client onboarding when the folder appears
A new client folder can be the cue to start the checklist. Let Notis create a Linear issue while the setup is top of mind.
Trigger
OneDrive Folder Created Trigger
Triggers when a new folder is created in OneDrive. Uses Gmail-style state management for reliable duplicate prevention.
Action
Create linear issue
Creates a new issue in a specified linear project and team, requiring a title and description, and allowing for optional properties like assignee, state, priority, cycle, and due date.
Why this helps
Client setup steps can be forgotten when folder creation and task tracking happen in separate routines.
- Make the start of onboarding visible in Linear.
- Reduce reliance on remembering a second setup step.
- Keep the client folder connected to its work item.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect OneDrive and Linear to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to start onboarding work when a client folder is created.
- 3Describe in one plain-language instruction which folders indicate a new client and what useful setup context to include.
- 4Choose the OneDrive Folder Created trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one client folder and confirm the issue has the correct source context.
Questions about this workflow
Will every folder start onboarding?
Tell Notis which client folders count, so ordinary folders do not create work items.
Can it create an onboarding checklist?
Ask Notis to describe the standard first steps in the issue, or create distinct issues for separate actions if that fits your process.
