Linear

What is the Linear Connection?

The Linear connection connects your Linear workspace to Duvo, enabling your assignments to create, manage, and track issues in your project management system on your behalf. This is a user-configured connection—you'll need to connect your Linear workspace before your assignments can use it.

What Can It Do?

The Linear connection provides actions that allow your assignments to:

• Create and manage issues: Create new issues, update existing ones, and delete completed items

• Handle attachments and comments: Add attachments, create comments, and download issue files

• Organize with labels: Create labels, apply them to issues, and remove them as needed

• Retrieve information: Get issue details, list projects, view teams, and access user information

• Track cycles: Access cycle information and sprint data

• Query data: Run custom queries or mutations for advanced operations

Why This Matters

Linear is where development teams track work, manage priorities, and coordinate on issues. The Linear connection allows your assignments to automatically create tasks from workflow events, update issue status as work progresses, and keep your project management synchronized with your business processes—eliminating manual issue creation and status updates.

When to Use It

Use the Linear connection when your assignment needs to:

• Create issues automatically: Generate tickets from customer requests, bug reports, or workflow triggers

• Update issue status: Mark tasks as complete, change priorities, or update progress automatically

• Add context: Attach files, add comments, or include relevant information on existing issues

• Track work: Create issues for follow-up tasks identified during automated workflows

• Retrieve project data: Pull issue lists, team information, or project details for reporting or analysis

How It Works

After connecting your Linear workspace, your assignments can interact with your projects using your logins and permissions. When you include Linear actions in your assignment's SOP, it will manage issues just as you would—creating tickets with proper details, updating status as workflows progress, and keeping your project management current.
