Turn Private Issues Into Qualified Leads
Issues created in private Linear teams automatically become leads in Salesforce. Sensitive customer work is tracked and followed up.
Trigger
Private Team Issue Created
Fires when a new issue appears in a private Linear team (polled with the connected user's token).
Action
Create lead
Creates a new lead in salesforce with the specified information.
Why this helps
Issues in private teams don't reach your sales process because they're hidden. Critical work goes without proper sales support and follow-up.
- Private team work is tracked in your sales process
- Sensitive issues get proper follow-up without exposing them broadly
- Sales understands the full scope of committed work
- Revenue implications of private work are visible
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Salesforce.
- 2Create an automation: 'When an issue is created in a private Linear team, create a lead in Salesforce.' Choose your notification channel.
- 3Notis will mark these leads appropriately so your team understands they're from sensitive projects.
- 4Test by creating an issue in a private team.
Questions about this workflow
Will this expose private team information?
Only the necessary details are shared. Sensitive context remains in Linear; Salesforce captures the key facts for follow-up.
Can I exclude specific private teams?
Yes. Tell Notis which teams to include or exclude from this automation.
What if the issue is internal-only?
You can refine the automation to skip internal issues or those marked confidential.
