Navigating Linear

Linear is organized around the work that is relevant to you, your teams, and your workspace.

Use the sidebar⁠

Use the sidebar to move between your personal work, shared workspace information, and your teams.

  • Inbox shows updates that need your attention
  • My Issues shows work assigned to you
  • Workspace contains shared projects, initiatives, and views
  • Your teams contain the issues, cycles, projects, and Triage queues for the teams you belong to
  • Favorites lets you pin the pages you visit most

Find anything quickly⁠

Press Cmd + K on Mac or Ctrl + K on Windows, then type the page or action you need.

Use / to search across issues, projects, and documents. You can also search for an issue directly by its identifier, such as LIN-123.

Use keyboard shortcuts⁠

Many common destinations have short keyboard shortcuts. For example, press G then I to open Inbox, or G then M to open My Issues.

Press ? to see the full list of shortcuts.

Open links in a new tab⁠
