Track Client Decisions from Sent Emails
Never lose a client commitment. When you send an email to a client, Notis auto-creates a Linear issue linking your decision to the original message.
Trigger
Email Sent
Triggers when a Gmail message is sent by the authenticated user. It polls the 'SENT' label and emits metadata including sender, recipients, subject, timestamp, and thread ID.
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
You make commitments in emails to clients, but when they ask 'what did we agree to?', you're rereading threads. There's no record of who promised what and when.
- Creates searchable records of all client commitments
- Reduces misalignments caused by forgotten promises
- Provides audit trail for contract or scope disputes
- Lets your team reference past decisions instantly
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Gmail and Linear to Notis.
- 2Create an automation: 'When I send an email to a client domain, create a Linear issue titled [Client] with email metadata and recipient info.'
- 3Set 'Email Sent' as your trigger.
- 4Choose a notification channel.
- 5Send a test email to a client and verify it creates a Linear issue with the recipient captured.
Questions about this workflow
How do I make sure only client emails are tracked?
Your automation can filter on domain name (e.g., only emails sent to @clientname.com) or specific email addresses you list.
Can I add the email attachment to the Linear issue?
Yes. Notis can extract attachments from the email and add them to the Linear issue for complete context.
What about blind CCs or forwarded emails?
Your prompt can specify to include or exclude CCs, and forwards can be tagged differently for clarity.
