Turn an anomaly or a recommendation into a Linear issue in one step. The issue carries the cost detail and a link back to CostGraph. The CostGraph page then shows Open ENG-123 for that issue.

​
Before you begin

  • A CostGraph organization owner or admin to connect Linear.
  • A Linear account that can create issues in the teams you want to use.

​
Connect Linear

1

Open the Linear card

In CostGraph, go to Settings > Integrations, open the Ticketing section, and select Linear. Click Connect.
2

Approve on Linear

Linear asks you to let CostGraph read your teams and create issues. Pick the Linear workspace to connect, then click Authorize. Linear returns you to CostGraph.
3

Choose teams

Select the teams people may create issues in, then click Save. To change the list later, click Choose where tickets go on the card. CostGraph only creates issues in these teams.
To change the list later, open the Linear card and edit the teams.

​
Create an issue

  1. Open an anomaly or a recommendation.
  2. Click Create ticket and select Linear.
  3. Choose the team for the issue. CostGraph creates it and shows Open ENG-123.
Each anomaly or recommendation has at most one Linear issue. Choosing Linear again opens the existing issue instead of creating another one.

​
Reconnect

If CostGraph loses access to Linear, organization owners and admins get an email, and the Linear card shows Reconnect. Click Reconnect and approve on Linear again. Existing issue links keep working.

​
Disconnect

On the Linear card, click Choose where tickets go, then Disconnect. People can no longer create Linear issues from CostGraph. Issues already created stay in Linear.

Self-hosted deployments

Linear isn’t available on self-hosted deployments. Use GitHub issues instead.
