This integration uses pre-built, source-available components from Pipedream's GitHub repo. These components are developed by Pipedream and the community, and verified and maintained by Pipedream.

To contribute an update to an existing component or create a new component, create a PR on GitHub. If you're new to Pipedream component development, you can start with quickstarts for trigger span and action development, and then review the component API reference.

Trigger#

Issue Status Updated (Instant) on Linear (API key)

Description:Triggers instantly when an issue's workflow state changes (e.g., Todo to In Progress). Returns issue with previous and current state info. Can filter by specific target state. See Linear docs for additional info [here](https://developers.linear.app/docs/graphql/webhooks).

Version:0.1.11

Linear (API key) Overview#

Linear helps streamline software project management, bug tracking, and task coordination. By using the Linear (API key) API with Pipedream, you can automate routine tasks, sync issues across platforms, and trigger custom workflows. Think auto-assignment of tasks based on specific triggers or pushing updates to a Slack channel when an issue's status changes. These automations save time and ensure that your development team stays focused on coding rather than on administrative overhead.

This component may be configured based on the props defined in the component code. Pipedream automatically prompts for input values in the UI and CLI.

Label	Prop	Type	Description
Linear (API key)	`linearApp`	`app`	This component uses the Linear (API key) app.
N/A	`db`	`$.service.db`	This component uses `$.service.db` to maintain state between executions.
Team ID	`teamId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
Project	`projectId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
State (Status)	`stateId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.

Trigger Authentication#

Linear (API key) uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your Linear (API key) account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to Linear (API key) APIs in both code and no-code steps.
