Linear

Get rich link previews and auto-subscribe threads to Linear updates

The Linear integration makes it easy to track work from Linear without leaving Glue. When you share a Linear link, Glue shows a rich preview with the latest details and keeps the conversation up to date as the issue changes.

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.

Setting up the Linear integration

To set up Notion, just paste a Notion link into any message in Glue and send the message. The first time you do this:

  • A prompt will appear asking you to connect Notion to Glue. Click Connect.

  • A popup up with then appear asking you to authorize Glue to use Notion. Click Authorize.

  • A browser pop-up will open, redirecting you to Notion. Depending on your browser, the messaging may vary slightly. If you're already logged into Notion, the authorization will complete automatically. If not, you'll be prompted to enter your Notion credentials to proceed.

  • You will see a confirmation message once Notion is successfully connected.

You don't need to add the Linear app to a thread to auto-subscribe to updates — just share a link with the link preview and the app will be added to the workspace automatically. If you do not want your thread subscribed to updates, remove the link preview before sending.
