Notis

Give each new Trello board a Linear next step

A new board can be exciting and easy to forget. Let Notis create a kickoff issue to anchor its first action.

Trigger

New Board Trigger

Triggered when a board is created in the specified workspace

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

New initiatives often get a board but no explicit owner or follow-up in the team's execution tracker.

  • Create a visible follow-up as soon as a board appears.
  • Make board setup less dependent on memory.
  • Give an initiative a clear first action in Linear.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Trello and Linear to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation or tell Notis conversationally to create a kickoff issue for new boards.
  • 3Select the Trello New Board trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
  • 4Test with one new board and confirm the Linear issue describes a useful next step.

Yes, the trigger runs on new boards in the selected workspace. Describe any board-specific relevance in the instruction.
