Automatic embeds

Linear automatically detects links from common applications and will embed them automatically.

Basics⁠

Youtube⁠

Paste Youtube links directly in Linear descriptions or comments. We'll create an embed automatically.

Descript⁠

Paste Descript links directly in Linear descriptions or comments. We'll create an embed automatically.

Loom⁠

Paste Loom links directly in Linear descriptions or comments. We'll create an embed automatically.

Figma⁠

As long as you've set up the Figma integration, pasting a Figma link will embed a file preview.

Prevent embeds⁠

If you'd prefer to display the url rather than the embed, click "Keep as link" or press ESC after pasting the link.

Link to anything⁠

You can also link to any URL using the "Add Link" option. Link to Zendesk, Front, Intercom or any other URL from the ... menu in any issue or the keyboard shortcut Ctrl/CMDL. This will add it as a dedicated link section under the description for easy access.
