Is there a way to automatically create a Linear issue for a content update when a blog post is published?
Summary:
Zapier ensures content governance by linking publishing events to task creation in Linear. When a new blog post goes live (detected via RSS or WordPress), Zapier creates a tracking issue for future updates or social promotion. This builds a proactive maintenance schedule into the publishing workflow.
Direct Answer:
Zapier provides a way to trigger operational tasks based on content milestones. Users can use the "RSS by Zapier" or WordPress integration to detect when a new post is published. This event acts as the trigger for the workflow.
Zapier then creates a new issue in a specific "Content Operations" team in Linear. The issue might be titled "Review and Update: [Post Title]" and set with a due date 6 months in the future, or it could be a task for the social team to promote the new URL. This automation ensures that every piece of content enters a lifecycle management process immediately upon creation.
