Linear Link Previews

With this integration, Glue can unfurl Linear links, making it easy to see issue details, project information, and team context without leaving the conversation. Statuses will update in real time in these previews.

Auto-Subscribe to Linear Updates

When you share a Linear issue link in a thread, Glue automatically subscribes the thread to updates for that issue. Whenever the issue's status changes, a system message is posted to the thread so everyone stays in the loop — no manual setup required. Just send your link with the link preview, and the thread will be automatically suscribed to updates.
