How to connect Linear and Volunteero
Create a New Scenario to Connect Linear and Volunteero
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. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Linear, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Linear or Volunteero will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Linear or Volunteero, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Linear Node
Select the Linear node from the app selection panel on the right.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Linear, Volunteero, 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 Volunteero integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Linear and Volunteero (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 Volunteero
Linear + Slack + Volunteero: When a new issue is created in Linear, a message is posted to a designated Slack channel to notify volunteers. Volunteers can then express interest, and their information is managed in Volunteero.
Volunteero + Linear + Google Sheets: When a volunteer's information is updated in Volunteero, their hours are tracked and linked to specific Linear project tasks, with the data stored in Google Sheets for reporting and analysis.
