Linear Comment Alerts in Telegram
Every time a colleague adds a comment to a Linear issue, Notis sends it to Telegram. Respond faster and stay in the loop.
Trigger
Comment Received Trigger
Triggered when a comment is received.
Action
Send Message
Send a text message to a telegram chat using the bot api.
Why this helps
Comments on Linear issues often contain critical feedback, blockers, or questions, but neurodivergent founders may not see them for hours or days because checking Linear feels like a separate task. This leads to slower decisions and frustration.
- Respond to comments within minutes instead of hours
- Never miss a blocker or critical question on an issue
- Reduce decision delays that slow down your team
- Keep communication flowing without switching tools
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Ensure Linear and Telegram are connected to Notis.
- 2Tell Notis: 'When someone comments on a Linear issue, send me a Telegram message with the comment.'
- 3Select the Comment Received trigger and your preferred Telegram channel.
- 4Create a test comment on an issue in Linear and verify the Telegram alert arrives.
Questions about this workflow
Will I get alerted for my own comments?
Notis can filter to exclude your own comments if you prefer. Just mention this when setting up the automation.
Can I filter by issue assignee or project?
Yes. Tell Notis which issues or projects matter most, and it will only alert you for comments on those items.
Does the Telegram message show who commented?
By default, Notis includes the commenter's name. You can adjust the message format by updating your automation prompt.
