Public Team Issue Notifications in Telegram
Notis watches your Linear public team and sends Telegram alerts for every new issue, keeping your whole team in sync instantly.
Trigger
Public Team Issue Created
Fires when a new issue is created in a Linear *public* team. For private teams (lock icon in Linear's sidebar) use `LINEAR_PRIVATE_TEAM_ISSUE_CREATED`.
Action
Send Message
Send a text message to a telegram chat using the bot api.
Why this helps
In distributed teams, new work created in Linear doesn't reach everyone equally. Some miss issues entirely; others learn secondhand. This creates duplicated effort, knowledge gaps, and frustration for founders trying to coordinate.
- Entire team learns about new work at the same time
- Reduce duplicated effort from parallel work discovery
- Keep public initiatives visible to all contributors
- Improve team cohesion across time zones
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Telegram integrations.
- 2Tell Notis: 'When a new issue appears in my Linear public team, post it to Telegram.'
- 3Choose your Linear public team and the Telegram channel for broadcasts.
- 4Create a test issue in your public Linear team and verify the Telegram notification.
Questions about this workflow
What counts as a public team in Linear?
Any Linear team without a lock icon in your sidebar is public. Private teams (with lock icons) require a separate automation using the private team trigger.
Can I send to multiple Telegram channels?
Yes. Set up separate automations for each channel, or ask Notis to route issues to different channels based on project or priority.
Will my team get too many notifications?
You can filter by project or priority to reduce noise. Tell Notis only to alert for certain types of issues.
