Generate Weekly Standup Issues Automatically

Standups are critical for keeping teams aligned. Every Monday morning, Notis creates a Linear issue with your standup template so the team knows where to report their progress.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

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 needs a weekly sync but creating the standup issue manually every week is a task that gets skipped. Standups get forgotten or happen irregularly, and the team loses alignment.

  • Standup happens automatically every week, no setup required
  • Consistent format means team knows what to do
  • Full history of weekly standups tracked in Linear
  • Reduces admin burden on whoever used to create these manually

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect your Linear workspace to Notis.
  • 2Tell Notis: 'Create a standup issue every Monday morning with a template for my team to fill out.'
  • 3Provide your standup template (e.g., 'What did we accomplish last week? What are we doing this week? What's blocked?').
  • 4Confirm which Linear team should receive standups and what time to create them.
  • 5Notis will create the first standup so you can verify the format before the recurring schedule starts.

Questions about this workflow

Can I change the standup day or time?

Absolutely. Tell Notis when you want standups (Monday 9am, Friday 4pm, etc.) and it will adjust the schedule.

What if I want a different template each week?

You can have multiple automations with different templates, or ask Notis to vary the template based on a rotation you define.

Can standups be posted to Telegram as well?

Yes. You can ask Notis to create the Linear issue and also post a message to a Telegram channel as a reminder.
