Create Linear Issues with One Telegram Button Click
Buttons are instant. When someone taps 'Create Issue' in Telegram, Notis immediately creates it in Linear. Perfect for rapid task capture without typing.
Trigger
Callback Query Received
Triggered when a user taps an inline keyboard button attached to one of your bot's messages.
Action
Create linear issue
Creates a new issue in a specified linear project and team, requiring a title and description, and allowing for optional properties like assignee, state, priority, cycle, and due date.
Why this helps
Your team sees something that needs tracking but typing a full message feels like friction. Buttons are frictionless, but they go nowhere. You want a one-tap way to create work items.
- Zero typing required. Tapping a button creates the issue.
- Lower friction means higher adoption across your team
- Quick capture without disrupting conversation flow
- Perfect for recurring decisions like 'Report Bug' or 'Feature Request'
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect your Telegram bot and Linear workspace to Notis.
- 2Tell Notis: 'When someone clicks a button in Telegram, create a new Linear issue with a template title and description.'
- 3Notis will ask you which button name to listen for and what template to use for the created issue.
- 4Select your notification channel for run reports.
- 5Test by sending a button in Telegram, clicking it, and confirming the Linear issue appears.
Questions about this workflow
Can I create buttons that prefill specific issue details?
Yes. Each button can map to a template with a default title, project, priority, or assignee. Notis sets these up based on which button was clicked.
What if I want multiple buttons for different issue types?
Create multiple automations, one per button. Each automation watches for a different button and creates a different issue template.
Can the button pass data from the message into Linear?
Yes. You can include the original message text or metadata in the Linear issue description automatically.
