Workflow and delivery

Linear integration

Work that is not in the tracker does not happen. The Linear integration turns citation gaps and content briefs into issues, in the team and project where the rest of the work already lives.

What it is

What the Linear integration is

The Linear connection reads and writes issues, projects and comments. A gap WriteWorks finds becomes an issue with the brief attached, and its state travels back so the platform knows what shipped.

It suits teams who treat content as delivery rather than as a separate calendar: same queue, same states, same weekly review as the product work beside it.

Briefs as issue content

What it does

What you can do with it

Four questions the two data sets answer together that neither answers alone.

An unanswered prompt becomes an issue with the brief, the target page and the evidence attached, ready to be estimated.

How it works

How the Linear integration works

About a minute to connect, and nothing to maintain afterwards.

1

Connect Linear

Open Settings, then Integrations, and choose Linear. Authorise the workspace; access can be revoked from Linear at any time.

2

Pick the team and project

Choose where content work should be filed, and the default state and labels new issues get.

3

Create issues from gaps

Send an opportunity or brief to Linear and it arrives as an issue with the context attached.

4

Close the loop

When the issue is done and the page is live, WriteWorks tracks the URL and reports what the work changed.

Who it is for

Who uses the Linear integration

The same connection answers a different question depending on who is asking.

One queue for content work, with the same states and rituals as the rest of delivery.

You bring your own account. The Linear integration authenticates with your own account at Linear, on your own plan and your own quota. WriteWorks reads the data that account already has access to, and nothing else. Disconnect at any time and the stored credential is deleted.

FAQ

Linear integration FAQs

The questions teams ask before connecting it.

What does the Linear integration do?+
It creates and updates Linear issues from WriteWorks, so citation gaps and content briefs become tracked work, and issue state travels back to the platform.
Which team and project do issues go to?+
Whichever you choose during setup, with default states and labels you set. Routing can differ per brand.
Does it read our other issues?+
It reads issues, projects and comments in the workspace you authorise so it can update and reference them. It does not need access to anything you have not authorised.
How do I connect Linear to WriteWorks?+
Open Settings, then Integrations, choose Linear, authorise the workspace, and pick the team, project and default state for new issues.
Can I use Linear and Jira together?+
Yes. Both can be connected, and each brand can file to whichever tracker that team actually uses.
What happens if I disconnect it?+
The stored credential is deleted and WriteWorks stops creating or updating issues. Issues already created stay in Linear.
