Connect Linear and you can send tasks from the [Task management](https://docs.get3rd.com/actions/task-management.md) board straight to a Linear team. Each task becomes an issue with its full brief in the description. When a task's status changes on either side, the other side can follow. > [!NOTE] > > The Linear integration is in **Beta**. If you don't see the **Linear** row, it isn't switched on for your organization yet. ## Before you start * You need **edit access** to the brand in 3RD. View-only members don't see the **Connect** button. * You connect **per brand**. Each brand links its own Linear workspace. * You need a Linear account that's a member of the team you want issues in. ## Connect Linear **1. Open Integrations** In 3RD, open **Settings → Integrations** for the brand. Linear is under **Task management**. You can also click **Integrations** on the Task management board. **2. Click Connect** In the **Linear** row, click **Connect**. Sign in to Linear and allow 3RD access to your workspace. **3. Check it's connected** Back in 3RD, the row shows **Connected** and the account you linked. If you cancel in Linear, nothing is connected and the row says so. ## Choose where issues go Open the **⋯** menu in the Linear row and click **Sync settings**. On the Task management board, click the **Linear** button instead. The **How 3RD works with Linear** window opens. * **Team**: the team the **Send** window opens on. * **To do**, **In progress**, **Done**: the workflow state an issue moves to for each status. You don't have to set anything for status to sync. Until you choose, each status uses the team's first state of the matching kind, shown as **Team default**: unstarted for **To do**, started for **In progress** and completed for **Done**. Each team keeps its own choices. Click **Save** when you're done. ## Send tasks to Linear **1. Select tasks** On the Task management board, tick the box on each task you want to send. The box shows when you hover over a card. **2. Click Send to Linear** In the bar that appears, click **Send to Linear**. **3. Pick the team and status** Choose the **Team** and the **Status**. With **Status for the task's status**, each issue starts in the state its task's status goes to. Click **Send**. 3RD shows how many tasks it sent. Each issue gets: | In Linear | From 3RD | | - | - | | **Title** | The task's title | | **Description** | A link back to the task in 3RD, its area and impact, why it matters, and the steps to take | A task that's already on that team isn't sent twice. Sent tasks show a small Linear icon on their card in 3RD. Click it to open the issue in Linear. ## Keep status in step **From 3RD to Linear.** When you change the status of a sent task in 3RD, 3RD asks **Update Linear too?** Click **Update Linear** to move the issue to the state for its new status, or **Not now** to leave it. **From Linear to 3RD.** When you move a sent issue to a state that one status goes to, the task in 3RD moves to that status. A state no status goes to, or that more than one status goes to, changes nothing. The newest change wins, whichever side made it. ## What 3RD never does 3RD only creates issues and changes the workflow state of the issues it sent. It never: * deletes, archives or trashes anything in Linear * changes an issue's title, description or anything else * moves an issue to another team * changes a team, workflow, project, label or member * touches an issue that was archived, trashed or moved to another team ## Disconnect Open the **⋯** menu in the Linear row and click **Disconnect**, then confirm. You can also click **Disconnect** in the **How 3RD works with Linear** window. 3RD stops sending anything to Linear and status changes stop coming back. Issues already in Linear stay where they are. ## Troubleshooting | You see | What to do | | - | - | | **Reconnect needed** on the Linear row | Linear stopped accepting the connection. Click **Reconnect**. | | **Connect Linear under Settings, Integrations to send these briefs there.** | The brand isn't connected yet. Follow [Connect Linear](#connect-linear). | | **The team has no Linear state for this status, so no issue moved.** | Pick a state for that status in **Sync settings**. | | **Could not load the Linear settings.** | Close the window and try again. If it keeps happening, reconnect Linear. | | **Only people who can edit this brand can change how it works with Linear.** | You have view-only access. Ask someone with edit access. | | A state change in Linear didn't reach 3RD | Check in **Sync settings** that exactly one status goes to that state, for that team. | ## Related * [Task management](https://docs.get3rd.com/actions/task-management.md): the board you send tasks from * [Monday.com](https://docs.get3rd.com/integrations/monday.md), [Asana](https://docs.get3rd.com/integrations/asana.md), [Trello](https://docs.get3rd.com/integrations/trello.md), [ClickUp](https://docs.get3rd.com/integrations/clickup.md) and [Jira](https://docs.get3rd.com/integrations/jira.md): the other task tools This documentation is built and hosted on [Mintlify](https://mintlify.com), a developer documentation platform.
