Beta: Microsoft Teams

Drive work forward from Microsoft Teams by turning conversations into issues, projects, and documents.

creating issues from teams by mentioning @linear

Overview⁠

An early version of our Teams integration is now available! Use it to move work forwards from Teams by sending a quick message mentioning Linear.

Try sending:

@linear file a bug for this and assign it to me
@linear who usually works on notifications issues?
@linear create a spec document on the Billing API project

This agent can take the same actions from Teams that you can take in Linear directly.

Configure⁠

As this integration is still in development, it’s not currently listed on the Microsoft Marketplace. Here’s how you sideload it for now:

In Linear, a workspace owner first connects Teams in Settings
Then, a Teams admin can enable custom apps in Teams

You can either create a new policy and add specific users, or enable it org-wide

MS Teams settings page for policies for custom apps

Then, click Upload a new app action and upload this zip file (this is our app)

Navigate to the newly installed Linear app

Go to the permissions tab and click Grant admin consent

Afterwards, the app will be available for use in Teams when mentioning @Linear.

FAQ⁠

We plan to support bidirectionally synced threads between Teams and Linear, allowing personal notifications from Linear in Teams, directing project updates to Teams, and rich unfurls of Linear URLs.

Microsoft is reviewing our app submission, we expect to be listed between mid-March and late April given the latest processing estimates.

Yes, this functionality is available on Enterprise plans.
