Your Daily Assignment Checklist
Every morning, Notis sends a list of unassigned issues in Linear. Before other work takes over, you know what needs to be assigned, and you can do it in one go.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
List Linear issues
Lists non-archived linear issues; if project id is not specified, issues from all accessible projects are returned. can also filter by assignee id to get issues assigned to a specific user.
Why this helps
Unassigned work piles up. Neurodivergent teams struggle with the meta-work of assignment because it requires checking multiple places. Work goes un-owned, leading to duplication and dropped balls.
- Clear view of work needing assignment
- Batch assignment is faster than ad-hoc
- Ensures work gets owned quickly
- Supports team coordination
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear to Notis.
- 2Tell Notis 'Every morning at 8am, send me a list of unassigned issues in Linear' or configure in the portal.
- 3Describe what to include: 'Show the issue title, project, and created date so I can prioritize assignment.'
- 4Select a daily recurring schedule.
- 5Pick Slack or email for delivery and test the first report.
Questions about this workflow
Can I filter by project or team?
Yes. Tell Notis 'only show unassigned issues from the engineering team' or 'exclude urgent issues' and it will filter accordingly.
Can I get this report at a different time?
Absolutely. Tell Notis 'send it at 10am instead' or 'send it twice a day' and it will adjust.
What if there are no unassigned issues?
Notis will send a brief report. You can ask Notis to 'only send this if there are unassigned issues' to reduce noise on quiet days.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Google Drive to Linear. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Google Drive triggers
Linear actions
Comment Added (Docs/Sheets/Slides)
Triggers when a new comment is added to Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides.
Create linear attachment
Creates a new attachment and associates it with a specific, existing linear issue.
File Created
Triggers when a new file is created in Google Drive.
Create a comment
Creates a new comment on a specified linear issue.
File Deleted or Trashed
Triggers when a file is moved to trash or permanently deleted in Drive.
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.
File Shared (Permissions Added)
Triggers when new sharing permissions are granted to a file or folder. Uses Drive's `changes.list` endpoint with inline `permissions` in the `fields` mask so each change carries the file's current permission set provider-atomically. We diff that against `seen_permission_keys` to identify newly added grants. Drive page tokens are the primary cursor; if Drive rejects a stored token, the trigger raises `PollingTriggerError` without clearing state rather than silently re-baselining and dropping events. Limitation: truly ephemeral permissions (added and revoked between two polls without any other file modification in between) are not detected. Drive Activity API would catch those but requires an additional OAuth scope and a different payload contract.
Get create issue default params
Fetches a linear team's default issue estimate and state, useful for pre-filling new issue forms.
File Updated
Triggers when a file's metadata or content changes in Google Drive.
Create a label
Creates a new label in linear for a specified team, used to categorize and organize issues.
Google Drive Changes
Triggers when changes are detected in a Google Drive.
Delete issue
Archives an existing linear issue by its id, which is linear's standard way of deleting issues; the operation is idempotent.
New File Matching Query
Triggers when a new Google Drive file matches a provided query. This is the legacy query-centric trigger: it preserves Drive API query config such as ``corpora`` / ``driveId`` aliases and emits the historical ``file_matching_query`` event type. ``FileCreatedTrigger`` covers the broader "new file" case and emits ``file_created``.
Get all teams
Retrieves all teams from the linear workspace without requiring any parameters.
Download issue attachments
Downloads a specific attachment from a linear issue; the `file name` must include the correct file extension.
Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.
Not just Google Drive and Linear. Any combination from 985+ integrations.
