Get weekly Linear status summaries in Google Drive
Every Monday, you're scrambling to compile what happened in Linear last week for your stakeholders. This automation runs on a schedule and delivers a fresh summary document every week so you spend 2 minutes reviewing instead of 2 hours aggregating.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Create a File from Text
Creates a new file in google drive from provided text content (up to 10mb), supporting various formats including automatic conversion to google workspace types.
Why this helps
End of week rolls around and you're manually pulling together a status report, scrolling through Linear to find what launched, what's in progress, and what's blocked. By the time you're done, you've lost an hour and the report feels incomplete.
- Status report ready automatically without manual compilation
- Consistent format every week, easier to spot trends
- Reduces the Thursday-night scramble to prepare for Friday updates
- Stakeholders get reliable, on-time reports
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Google Drive.
- 2Ask Notis: 'Every Monday at 9 AM, create a new Google Drive document summarizing all Linear issues from the past week: new issues, completed issues, and blocked items. Save it with the date'
- 3Notis will run the automation on schedule and save each report with a timestamp.
- 4Test by running it manually once, then let it run on schedule. Adjust the time or content based on the first report.
Questions about this workflow
Can I customize which issues appear in the report?
Yes. Tell Notis to filter by team, project, assignee, or label. You can create different reports for different stakeholders.
What happens if there are no changes that week?
Notis still generates the report, noting that it's been a quiet week. You'll always get a document, even if it's brief.
Can I send the report automatically to email or Slack?
Yes. Ask Notis to share the document with specific people or post a link to your Slack channel each Monday.
