Carry issue changes from Todoist into Linear
Capture a needed issue change in Todoist and keep the referenced Linear issue current.
Trigger
New Task Created
Trigger when a new task is added to Todoist.
Action
Update issue
Updates an existing linear issue using its `issue id`; requires at least one other attribute for modification, and all provided entity ids (for state, assignee, labels, etc.) must be valid.
Why this helps
A change noted in a personal task can leave the team's Linear issue stale until someone remembers to update it.
- Keep issue details current from quick task capture.
- Reduce the number of manual update steps.
- Preserve the issue reference alongside the requested change.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Todoist and Linear to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3Use one instruction asking Notis to update the Linear issue referenced in a new Todoist task with the specific change described there.
- 4Select the Todoist New Task Created trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with a task that references a real issue and requests a clear, safe update.
