Clear retired Trello work from Linear
When a card is archived as finished or no longer needed, Notis can archive its matching Linear issue too.
Trigger
Card Archived Trigger
Triggered when a card is archived in the specified board
Action
Delete issue
Archives an existing linear issue by its id, which is linear's standard way of deleting issues; the operation is idempotent.
Why this helps
Retired requests can linger in the engineering queue and make active priorities harder to scan.
- Keep the active Linear queue easier to scan.
- Avoid manually hunting down completed or dropped work.
- Align archived work across planning and delivery tools.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Trello and Linear to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation and clearly describe which archived cards mean the related issue should be archived.
- 3Select the Trello Card Archived trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
- 4Test with one real card and matching issue that is safe to archive.
Questions about this workflow
Should every archived card archive its issue?
Only describe this action if archiving a card consistently means the work should leave Linear's active queue.
Can an archived issue be recovered?
Linear uses issue archiving as its standard delete behavior; verify the intended card-to-issue match before enabling the workflow.
