How to connect Linear and Grist

Create a New Scenario to Connect Linear and Grist

In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step

Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event.

Set Up the Linear and Grist Integration

Use various Latenode nodes to transform data and enhance your integration:

  • Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
  • Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
  • Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
  • Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
  • Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
  • Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.
  • Iteration: Process arrays of data when needed.
  • Code: Write custom code or ask our AI assistant to do it for you.

Save and Activate the Scenario

After configuring Linear, Grist, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.

Test the Scenario

Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Linear and Grist integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Linear and Grist (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.

Most powerful ways to connect Linear and Grist

Linear + Grist + Slack: When a Linear issue is resolved (status updated), the corresponding status in a Grist record is updated. Then, a notification is sent to a dedicated Slack channel to inform the team about the resolved issue.

Grist + Linear + Jira: When a new record is created or updated in Grist with a high priority, a Jira ticket is created and linked to a Linear issue. This ensures that high-priority tasks are tracked across different platforms.
