Trigger Linear Issues from External Webhooks

You use multiple tools. Instead of manually creating Linear issues for work from other systems, Notis listens for webhooks and auto-creates issues so everything lives in Linear.

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

Work comes from many sources: analytics alerts, monitoring systems, third-party integrations, custom scripts. Each one requires manual Linear issue creation. Work gets siloed and scattered across systems.

  • Centralize work from all your external systems into Linear
  • Alerts and events from other tools automatically become tracked issues
  • No manual creation required for webhook-triggered work
  • Single source of truth for all work items

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect your Linear workspace to Notis.
  • 2Tell Notis: 'Create a Linear issue whenever you receive a webhook from [external system].'
  • 3Notis will provide you with a webhook URL to configure in your external system.
  • 4Define what data from the webhook should populate the Linear issue title, description, and other fields.
  • 5Test by triggering the webhook manually and verifying the Linear issue is created.

Questions about this workflow

What systems can send webhooks to Notis?

Any system that supports webhooks. Common examples: GitHub, Stripe, Sentry, DataDog, Zapier, custom scripts, or any API-enabled tool.

Can I transform the webhook data before it creates an issue?

Yes. Tell Notis how to map incoming fields to Linear issue properties (title, description, priority, assignee, etc.).

What if multiple webhooks need different mappings?

Create separate automations for each webhook source. Each gets its own configuration.
