Automatically notify your team in Linear when meetings cancel
Keep your team informed instantly. When you cancel a meeting, Notis posts a comment in the related Linear issue to alert everyone and prevent wasted preparation.
Trigger
Event Canceled or Deleted
Triggers when a Google Calendar event is cancelled or deleted. Returns minimal data: event_id, summary (if available), and cancellation timestamp.
Action
Create a comment
Creates a new comment on a specified linear issue.
Why this helps
Cancelled meetings sometimes don't get communicated to the team. People prepare for meetings that won't happen, wasting time and creating frustration.
- Instantly alert your team to cancelled meetings
- Prevent wasted preparation time
- Keep everyone aware of schedule changes
- Reduce confusion about meeting status
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Calendar and Linear to Notis.
- 2Create an automation named 'Meeting Cancelled Alert'.
- 3Write your prompt: 'When I cancel a calendar event, post a comment in the related Linear issue saying the meeting is cancelled.'
- 4Select 'Event Canceled or Deleted' as your trigger and pick your notification channel.
- 5Test by cancelling a calendar meeting and verify the Linear comment appears immediately.
Questions about this workflow
What if I want to reschedule instead of cancel?
You can adjust your prompt: 'post a comment with the new meeting time' or 'mark the issue for rescheduling.' Notis handles both scenarios.
Can Notis explain why a meeting was cancelled?
If you add a cancellation reason to your calendar event, Notis includes it in the Linear comment. Include it in your event details and Notis will capture it.
Does this work for all meetings?
Yes, or you can refine it: 'only notify for client meetings' or 'skip personal events.' Notis respects your filter criteria.
