Export Linear comments to Google Drive for easier review
Team feedback scattered across Linear gets lost. This automation captures every comment and threads it into a Google Drive document, so you can review all feedback in one place without tab-switching.

Comment Received Trigger
Triggered when a comment is received.
Action
Create Comment
Tool to create a comment on a file. use when you need to add a new comment to a specific file in google drive.
Why this helps
Valuable feedback happens in Linear comments, but you read it once and then it's buried in the issue thread. By the time you need that feedback for refinement or retrospectives, you're digging through multiple issues to find it.
- All feedback centralized and searchable in Drive
- Feedback remains accessible long after the Linear issue is archived
- Easier to spot patterns across multiple comments
- Reduces the need to re-read Linear threads or screenshots conversations
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Google Drive integrations.
- 2Ask Notis: 'When someone comments on a Linear issue, save that comment to a Google Drive document named after the issue'
- 3Notis will create or update Drive docs that match your issue structure.
- 4Choose how you want to be notified and test by commenting on a Linear issue. The comment appears in Drive within seconds.
Questions about this workflow
Do reply comments get captured too?
Yes. All nested replies in a Linear thread get added to the Drive document, preserving the conversation structure.
Can I attach the original commenter's name?
Absolutely. Notis includes the author's name, timestamp, and comment text so you know who said what and when.
What happens if I delete a Linear comment?
The Drive document doesn't auto-delete, but you can ask Notis to flag removed comments or version-track them separately.
