FAQ

Questions about Get Issue.

What does the Get Issue action do in Linear?

Retrieves 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.

What inputs does Get Issue require?

Required: Issue ID. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.

Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?

Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.

What happens if Linear returns an error?

The workflow pauses on the failed node, the error message is captured in the run log, and you can retry the run with one click. Auto-retry policies are configurable per workflow with exponential backoff up to 5 attempts.

Does Get Issue support batch operations?

Yes. Run Get Issue inside a Loop node to process arrays. Tiny Command handles Linear's rate limits automatically so you don't have to throttle manually.
