Connect & Configure
Before you start building with Linear, you need to configure the integration.
Navigate to Workspace → Automations in your app.
Click Create to build a new automation.
You can also prompt EVE to build the automation for you.
Add a Linear trigger / action/step.
Configure and enable the automation (or continue adding steps).
Click Connect in the sidebar on the right and authorize Taskade.
Your Linear data is now available to automations and agents.
Linear Triggers
🚧 Coming soon: Linear triggers are currently in development.
Linear Actions
Build sprint and issue workflows with Linear actions. Create, retrieve, and search issues directly from your automation workflows or AI agents.
Action | Description |
Create Issue | Create a new issue with title, description, status, and more. |
Get Issue | Fetch a single issue by ID or identifier (e.g. LIN-123). |
Search Issues | Search for issues by query across your Linear workspace. |
Use Linear with AI Agents
Your AI agents can call Linear actions as tools during conversations, allowing them to look up issues, create tickets, and respond with live sprint data.
Configure Linear Tool
Connect Linear to your workspace (see above).
Open your agent → Tools tab.
Enable Automation Actions or add Linear as a custom tool.
The agent will call Linear actions automatically when relevant during chat.
Prompt Examples
Your AI agents can use Linear actions as tools during conversations:
User: "What's the status of LIN-342?"
Agent → linear.get_issue("LIN-342") → Status: In Progress, Assignee: Sarah
Agent: "LIN-342 is in progress, assigned to Sarah."
Example Workflows
Here are a few ways to put Linear automation into practice.
Sprint Sync
Action: Linear Search Issues (filter by sprint = current)
→ Action: Create tasks in Taskade project "Active Sprint"
→ Action: Assign to team members
→ Action: Notify via Slack
Bug Triage Agent
Agent trained on your codebase docs + issue guidelines
→ Custom tool: Linear Create Issue
→ Custom tool: Linear Search Issues
→ Deploy as internal tool for your engineering team
Daily Standup Report
Trigger: Schedule (every weekday at 9am)
→ Action: Linear Search Issues (updated yesterday)
→ Action: Summarize with AI
→ Action: Post summary to Taskade project
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I connect multiple Linear accounts?
Yes. Connect each account separately in your workspace automations.
How does authentication work?
Linear uses OAuth 2.0. Authorize once and Taskade handles token refresh.
Is there a rate limit?
Taskade respects Linear's API rate limits. High-volume workflows may want to use scheduled triggers instead of real-time triggers.
