Master Issue Inventory: Always-Updated Public Backlog
All your public team's issues in one Google Sheet, automatically updated. No more hunting through Linear for the issue you half-remember. New issues land in your sheet as they're created.
Trigger
Public Team Issue Created
Fires when a new issue is created in a Linear *public* team. For private teams (lock icon in Linear's sidebar) use `LINEAR_PRIVATE_TEAM_ISSUE_CREATED`.
Action
Append Values to Spreadsheet
Tool to append values to a spreadsheet. use when you need to add new data to the end of an existing table in a google sheet.
Why this helps
With multiple open issues, finding the right one wastes time. A sheet-based inventory lets founders search and filter more fluidly than Linear's interface, but manual logging kills the workflow.
- Searchable issue inventory
- One-click filtering and sorting
- Faster issue lookup
- Better backlog visibility

- 1Connect Linear and Google Sheets to Notis.
- 2Create automation: 'When a new issue is created in my public Linear team, add it to my issues inventory sheet with all key details.'
- 3Pick your notification channel.
- 4Select 'Public Team Issue Created' trigger.
- 5Test by creating an issue in your public team and watching it appear in the sheet.
Questions about this workflow
Should I use this alongside Linear's board view?
Yes. The sheet is a searchable, filterable inventory; Linear's board is for workflow. Use both for different purposes.
Can I include sub-issues?
Notis captures top-level issues. For sub-issues, ask Notis to include a notes field where you can reference them.
