How it works

The Linear connector pulls in all the Linear issues and the associated comments. Issues are updated every 10 minutes.

​
Setup

​
Configure your Linear Application + Gorbit env variables

This is only necessary if self-hosting Gorbit. If using Gorbit Cloud, you can skip this step.
1

Create Linear application

Create a Linear OAuth Application. This step must be completed by an admin of the Linear workspace you wish to connect to Gorbit. The application callback URLs should include <your gorbit host>/connector/oauth/callback/linear. For example, for a local deployment with default configurations one of the lines should be http://localhost:3000/connector/oauth/callback/linear.
2

Set environment variables

Set the following environment variables on your Gorbit instance using the Client ID and Signing Secret provided by Linear for your new app:
LINEAR_CLIENT_ID=
LINEAR_CLIENT_SECRET=
3

Restart Gorbit

Restart your Gorbit instance as you normally would to apply the changes.
