Connect Linear with Slack

Q: Which Linear workspace does the connection use?

The one you authorize. Nodest records that Linear organization when the connection is made and matches incoming events against it, so events from another Linear workspace are never mixed in. A Nodest workspace holds one Linear connection. A second Linear organization belongs in a second Nodest workspace.

Q: Do I have to reconnect Linear periodically?

No. Nodest renews the authorization in the background, so it keeps working until you disconnect it or someone revokes Nodest's access from Linear's settings.

Build automations that connect Linear with Slack. When something happens in Linear, Nodest passes the data along and runs the actions you set up in Slack or the other way around — no coding required.
