Create Linear Issues from Monitoring System Alerts

Your monitoring systems catch problems. Notis converts those webhook alerts into Linear issues automatically so the team can investigate, track, and resolve them.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

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

Monitoring alerts come in but they're hard to track. Some get acted on, others are missed. There's no audit trail of what was alerted on or how it was resolved.

  • Every alert automatically creates a trackable issue in Linear
  • Audit trail of all alerts and their resolutions
  • Team responds to alerts more quickly because they're tracked
  • Reduced alert fatigue through centralized tracking

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear to Notis and identify your monitoring system (Datadog, New Relic, Sentry, etc.).
  • 2Configure your monitoring system to send webhooks to the Notis webhook URL.
  • 3Tell Notis: 'Create a Linear issue for each alert webhook, including alert name, severity, and description.'
  • 4Describe what each issue should contain in plain language, for example: use the alert name as the title, its severity as the priority, and add the service as a label.
  • 5Test by triggering an alert manually and verify the Linear issue is created.

Questions about this workflow

How does Notis handle duplicate alerts?

By default, each alert creates a new issue. You can ask Notis to detect duplicates and update existing issues instead.

Can priority be set based on alert severity?

Yes. Tell Notis to map alert severity (critical, warning, info) to Linear priority (high, medium, low).

Should resolved alerts close the Linear issue?

Yes. Configure your monitoring system to send a resolve webhook, and Notis will close the corresponding issue.
