Sync Notion Comments to Linear Discussions
Comment in Notion, and your Linear teammates instantly see the discussion thread. No more duplicating comments or losing context.
Trigger
Comment Created
Triggers when a new comment is created in Notion. Optional `page_id` filter scopes to comments on a specific page. When omitted, fires for any new comment in the workspace the integration has access to. Requires the 'Read comments' capability on the Notion integration. If a connection was authorized before that capability was enabled, the user must re-authorize the connection for comment events to flow.
Action
Create a comment
Creates a new comment on a specified linear issue.
Why this helps
Discussion threads split between Notion and Linear create confusion. You comment in one tool thinking the team will see it, but half your team checks the other tool. Context gets lost, decisions get questioned twice.
- Unified conversation: all discussion stays in one place for Linear viewers
- No context loss: comments are preserved automatically
- Fewer redundant conversations: team doesn't ask the same question twice
- Preserves your Notion-centric workflow: keep commenting where you already are
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion (with Read Comments capability) and Linear to Notis.
- 2Create the automation: 'When I add a comment to a Notion page, post it as a comment on the matching Linear issue.'
- 3Notis will ask which Notion pages to monitor (you can scope it to a specific database).
- 4Choose your notification channel.
- 5Test by commenting on a Notion task and verifying the comment appears in the linked Linear issue.
Questions about this workflow
Do comments from other people in Notion also sync to Linear?
Yes, this automation syncs all comments added to the specified Notion pages or database, from any team member who has access.
What if a comment in Notion is deleted? Will it be removed from Linear?
Once a comment is posted to Linear, it stays there. Notion comment deletions do not affect the Linear comment.
Can I choose which comments sync to Linear?
You can scope the automation to specific Notion pages or databases. All comments on those pages will sync.
Does the comment sync work with thread replies in Notion?
Yes, threaded comments in Notion are flattened into Linear's comment stream, with context preserved in the text.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Linear. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Notion triggers
Linear actions
All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
Create linear attachment
Creates a new attachment and associates it with a specific, existing linear issue.
Comment Created
Triggers when a new comment is created in Notion. Optional `page_id` filter scopes to comments on a specific page. When omitted, fires for any new comment in the workspace the integration has access to. Requires the 'Read comments' capability on the Notion integration. If a connection was authorized before that capability was enabled, the user must re-authorize the connection for comment events to flow.
Create a comment
Creates a new comment on a specified linear issue.
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
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.
Database Created
Triggers when a new Notion database (the container) is created. A database is the post-2025-09-03 container that holds one or more data sources. This trigger fires for the container's creation event (`database.created`), distinct from `NOTION_DATASOURCE_CREATED` which fires when a new data source is added to an existing database. Most customers calling Notion's `POST /v1/databases` (the legacy API) or creating a database via the Notion UI will see this event. Adding a new data source to an existing database fires `data_source.created` instead — use `NOTION_DATASOURCE_CREATED` for that. Notion's payload puts `entity.type: "block"` (the container is a `child_database` block in the content tree) and `entity.id` is the database id.
Get create issue default params
Fetches a linear team's default issue estimate and state, useful for pre-filling new issue forms.
Data Source Created
Triggers when a new Notion data source is created. Fires workspace-wide. The payload's `data.parent` carries the data source's tree parent (typically the teamspace) for downstream filtering. A single template-based database creation can fire multiple `data_source.created` events at once — one per data source the template instantiates.
Create a label
Creates a new label in linear for a specified team, used to categorize and organize issues.
Data Source Schema Updated
Triggers when a Notion data source's schema is updated. Fires on column add / remove / rename. Payload includes `data.updated_properties: [{id, name, action}]` so consumers can discriminate the kind of change downstream. Optional `data_source_id` filter scopes to schema changes on a single data source. When omitted, fires for any schema change in the workspace the integration has access to. Note: adding a column also fires `page.properties_updated` once per existing row in the data source. Customers wanting a single structural-change signal should use this trigger.
Delete issue
Archives an existing linear issue by its id, which is linear's standard way of deleting issues; the operation is idempotent.
New Page
Triggers when a new page is added to a Notion database.
Get all teams
Retrieves all teams from the linear workspace without requiring any parameters.
Page Added to Page
Fires when a new subpage (a `child_page` type block) is added under a specified parent Notion page.
Download issue attachments
Downloads a specific attachment from a linear issue; the `file name` must include the correct file extension.
