Preserve issue relationships across tools

Link Issues

Links two jira issues using a specified link type with optional comment.

Why this helps

You mark issues as related in Linear, but Jira has no clue they're connected. Teams can't see the dependency graph and plan work incorrectly.

  • Dependency graph stays current across both systems
  • Teams see which issues block which—no surprises
  • Better planning and parallel work without conflicts
  • Reduces 'oh, we should have coordinated this' delays

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Jira to Notis
  • 2Set up automation: 'When a Linear issue is marked as related or blocked by another issue, automatically link the corresponding Jira issues with the same relationship type.'
  • 3Choose your notification channel
  • 4Link two test Linear issues and verify Jira links appear

Questions about this workflow

What if the relationship type differs between Linear and Jira?

Notis maps common types (blocks/blocked-by, relates-to, depends-on). Custom mappings can be added to your prompt.

Does this work for issues that don't have direct Jira counterparts?

No. Notis only links issues that already exist in both systems. If a related issue isn't in Jira, Notis will notify you.

Can I remove links if a Linear relationship is removed?

Yes. Add to your prompt: 'if a relationship is removed in Linear, also remove the Jira link'.
