Linear

Issues, cycles, and projects on Linear

Linear is the issue tracker engineers actually like, and its trigger model on Tiny Command leans into the way Linear teams actually work. Six triggers cover the lifecycle: Issue Created, Issue Updated (for state, priority, estimate, or assignee changes), Issue Deleted, Comment Created, Cycle Created (Linear's replacement for the heavyweight sprint), and Project Created. Eight actions handle the writes and reads: Create Issue, Update Issue, Create Comment, Search Issues, Get Issue, List Issues, List Projects, List Teams. The integration uses Linear's OAuth, so a workflow only touches teams and projects the connected user has access to. Common patterns: a GitHub PR opened auto-creates a Linear issue in the right team, a Slack message reacts to issue state changes, a Calendly booking creates a customer-discovery issue with the call notes attached, and Cycle Created kicks off a planning template across the team's tooling.

Triggers

Workflows start when Linear does.

6 real-time triggers, each backed by a webhook subscription. Events arrive within seconds and you don't have to set up polling.

Actions

Do anything Linear can do, from a workflow.

Every action accepts dynamic inputs from upstream nodes, whether that's an AI output, a form field, or a search result.

ActionWhat it does
Add CommentAdds a comment to a Linear issue with optional Markdown formatting. Used for automation activity logs, AI summary notes, or status broadcasts.
Create IssueCreates a new issue in a Linear team with title, description (Markdown), state, priority, assignee, labels, project, and cycle. Standard write for piping external alerts or bug reports into Linear.
Get IssueRetrieves a single Linear issue by its identifier (e.g. ENG-123) with title, description, state, assignee, project, and labels. The standard read after a trigger fires.
List IssuesLists recent issues from Linear with filters for team, state, assignee, project, and label. Used for digests, sprint reviews, or warehouse exports.
List ProjectsLists projects in your Linear workspace with name, state, lead, and target date. Used to populate a project picker or for roadmap reporting.
List TeamsLists all teams in your Linear workspace with key and name. Required first step to get team IDs for creating issues.
Search IssuesSearches issues in Linear by title or identifier. The right tool for upsert lookups or for finding related work by keyword.
Update IssueUpdates fields on an existing Linear issue: title, description, state, priority, assignee, estimate, labels, project, or cycle. Only the fields you pass are changed.

Before you build

Three things worth knowing.

Filter at the trigger

Tiny Command counts a run the moment a trigger fires. Filtering early means only matching events spend your usage budget.

Authorize once, reuse anywhere

Connect Linear once and every workflow on your account can use its triggers and actions. You don't have to re-auth per workflow.

No JSON to read

Every Linear field shows up in the visual picker for downstream nodes. The raw payload is there for power users, optional for everyone else.

FAQ

Questions about the Linear integration.

If we missed yours, ping support. We usually reply within an hour.

How do I connect Linear to Tiny Command?
Open the Tiny Command workflow builder, drop in a Linear node, and click Connect. Authorize Linear once and any workflow on your account can use its triggers and actions. Most teams finish the connection in under two minutes.
What Linear triggers does Tiny Command support?
Tiny Command supports 6 real-time Linear triggers, including "Comment Created", "New Cycle", "New Issue". Each trigger fires within seconds of the event happening in Linear.
What Linear actions can I run from a workflow?
8 Linear actions are available out of the box, covering developer tools operations like "Add Comment". Every action accepts dynamic inputs from upstream nodes, whether that's a search result, an AI output, or a form field.
Is the Linear integration real-time?
Yes. Comment Created and every other Linear trigger uses webhooks or push subscriptions, so workflows fire within seconds of the event in Linear rather than on a polling schedule.
Do I need to write code to use Linear with Tiny Command?
No. Every Linear trigger and action is fully configurable from the visual workflow builder. For edge cases that aren't covered, drop in a custom HTTP node and call any Linear API endpoint directly.
How much does the Linear integration cost?
There's a free tier you can start on without a credit card. Higher run volumes and team features come with paid plans. The Linear integration itself has no per-app surcharge.
