Why this helps

Sensitive feedback stays in private Linear comments, creating a context gap where Jira viewers miss critical decisions about private team work.

  • Full discussion context in Jira without exposing private team membership to unauthorized users
  • Decisions made with complete information across teams
  • Prevents 'why did we choose this?' questions later
  • Secure audit trail of sensitive discussions

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Jira to Notis with private team access
  • 2Create automation: 'When someone comments on a private team Linear issue, add that comment to the matching Jira issue.'
  • 3Notis will respect your account's access to private teams
  • 4Have a teammate leave a test comment in a private team issue and verify it syncs to Jira

Questions about this workflow

Can I audit who's seeing private comments in Jira?

Notis adds the comment to Jira, which has its own access controls. Set Jira permissions to restrict who sees the issue.

What if a comment mentions private team members—does their info leak?

Notis syncs the text as-is. If a comment says 'ask @alice'—it will sync that mention. Jira will attempt to @-mention alice if she exists as a Jira user.

Can I selectively hide certain comments?

Yes. Add a filter: 'only sync comments not marked private' or exclude certain comment types.
