FAQ

Questions about Linear + Intercom.

How do I create a Linear issue from an Intercom conversation?
Intercom Tag Added "bug" → Linear Create Issue with title = conversation title, description = chat history + customer info. Save Linear identifier to Intercom conversation as custom attribute.
Can I notify Intercom users when their reported Linear issue ships?
Yes. Linear Issue moved to "Done" → look up Intercom conversation by Linear identifier → Intercom Add Reply with "Fix shipped". Closes the loop publicly.
How do I include customer plan tier in the Linear issue?
Intercom Get Contact returns custom attributes. Pass plan tier into Linear description and as labels. Triage prioritizes accordingly.
Can I AI-classify before creating Linear issues?
Yes. Insert Claude/OpenAI step. Confirmed bug → Linear bug team. Feature → product team. Account/billing → routed elsewhere. Filters out non-engineering work.
How do I avoid duplicate Linear issues?
Trigger on tag added (manual support action). Store Linear identifier on the conversation. Filter to conversations without one already set.
