Review your Linear workflow states weekly
Keep your team aligned on process. Notis sends a weekly summary of all Linear workflow states, ensuring everyone understands the stages issues progress through.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
List Linear states
Retrieves all workflow states for a specified team in linear, representing the stages an issue progresses through in that team's workflow.
Why this helps
Team members often don't understand the full issue workflow, leading to issues getting stuck or moved to wrong states. Workflow confusion slows down shipping.
- Ensure your entire team understands the issue workflow
- Catch workflow gaps or redundant states early
- Improve consistency in how issues are tracked and progressed
- Reduce confusion about issue status meanings
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear to Notis.
- 2Create an automation named 'Weekly Workflow State Report'.
- 3Write your prompt: 'Every Monday morning, pull a list of all workflow states in Linear and explain what each stage means.'
- 4Select your preferred day and time, and choose where to receive the report.
- 5Notis will deliver the report weekly, helping your team stay aligned on workflow standards.
Questions about this workflow
Can I get this for specific teams only?
Yes. Refine your prompt: 'show workflow states for the engineering team' or 'only report on the product team's stages.' Notis filters by team.
What format is the report in?
Notis creates a clear, readable summary: each stage name, description, and how many issues are in that state. Easy to scan and share with the team.
Can I get this on a different schedule?
Yes. Change your prompt to 'every Friday' or 'twice a week.' Notis respects your preferred cadence and timing.
