Kick off Linear work when a Jira project is born
A new Jira project can sit for days before anyone gives engineering a starting point. Notis creates a kickoff issue in Linear the moment the project appears, so the work has a home before momentum fades.
Trigger
New Project
Triggered when a new project is added in Jira
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
New initiatives often stall in the gap between being greenlit in Jira and becoming actual, trackable work in Linear.
- Every new Jira project gets an immediate first step in Linear.
- Engineering starts with a concrete issue instead of a vague heads-up.
- The gap between greenlight and real work shrinks to zero.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Jira and Linear to Notis once from the portal.
- 2Open your portal link from Notis and create a New Automation, or just ask Notis in plain language.
- 3Describe the outcome, for example: When a new Jira project is created, open a kickoff issue in Linear for it.
- 4Select the Jira New Project event as the trigger.
- 5Choose a report channel and test by creating one real Jira project.
Questions about this workflow
What goes in the kickoff issue?
Whatever you describe in your instruction. Tell Notis the title and starter checklist you want and it will fill the issue accordingly.
Does it fire for every new Jira project?
Yes, the trigger reacts to any new project added in Jira. You can narrow the behavior in your plain-language prompt if needed.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Jira to Linear. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Jira triggers
Linear actions

New Project
Triggered when a new project is added in Jira
Create a comment
Creates a new comment on a specified linear issue.
Updated Issue
Fires when an existing issue is changed in the Jira project you configure — for example its status, assignee, or any other field on the issue is updated. Only issues in that project produce an event. It does not fire on comment activity: adding, editing, or deleting a comment on an issue will not produce an event from this trigger.
