How the Slack-Linear Connection Works

How the Slack-Linear Connection Works

Simple Setup for Powerful Bug Tracking Integration

This automation creates a seamless bridge between team communication and bug tracking:

  1. Custom Slack Command: Team members use the /bug command to report issues without leaving Slack
  2. Webhook Processing: The workflow captures bug details via webhook triggered by the slash command
  3. Standardized Formatting: Information is automatically formatted with predefined templates
  4. Linear Integration: A new bug ticket is created in Linear with appropriate labels and categorization
  5. Confirmation: The workflow sends confirmation back to Slack with a link to the new ticket

Setup requires minimal configuration - just create a Slack app with a slash command and connect it to your n8n workflow and Linear account.
