Keep project metadata in sync automatically

Update a Linear project's status or lead, and Jira reflects the change instantly.

Trigger

Project Properties Updated

Fires when properties on a Linear project change (status, lead, target date, priority, etc.). Covers projects in both public and private teams — polls with the connected user's token.

Action

Edit Issue

Updates an existing jira issue with field values and operations. supports direct field parameters (summary, description, assignee, priority, etc.) that are merged with the fields parameter. direct parameters take precedence.

Why this helps

Project leadership changes in Linear, but Jira still shows the old lead—team members get confused about who's driving the project.

  • Team always knows who's leading a project without asking
  • Project status updates visible in real time across both systems
  • No stale leadership info causing communication breakdowns
  • Clear ownership reduces 'whose job is this?' confusion

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Jira to Notis
  • 2Create automation: 'When a Linear project's lead, status, or target date changes, update the corresponding Jira project.'
  • 3Choose your notification channel
  • 4Change a test Linear project's lead and verify Jira project updates

Questions about this workflow

What if the new lead doesn't have Jira access?

Notis will attempt to add them. If they're not in Jira, it notifies you—you can add them manually or adjust the workflow.

Does this work for all project property changes or just specific ones?

You can filter in your prompt: 'only sync lead changes' or 'sync all property updates'—your choice.

Can I map Linear project statuses to Jira custom statuses?

Yes. Include status mapping in your prompt: 'when Linear project is 'In Review', set Jira to 'Pending Review''.
