What Unito syncs from Linear
Unito syncs these Linear work item types with items in other tools (for example, Asana tasks, Jira work items or Zendesk tickets):
- Issues
- Projects
- Project milestones
- Teams
- Labels
- Cycles
- Statuses
- Comments
- Attachments
- Users and members (read only)
Supported field types
Unito supports these Linear field types:
- Number
- Text
- Rich text
- Enums (single and multi select)
- Date
- Datetime
- User
- Lookups
- Labels
Most fields sync both ways: a change in Linear shows up in the other tool, and a change in the other tool shows up in Linear. A few fields, like Created At, can only be read from Linear, so they sync one way.
Highlighted features
- Attachments: Unito syncs binary attachments from other tools into Linear.
- Comments: Unito syncs comments on Linear issues.
- Rich text sync: Formatting carries over in every rich text field, including comments.
- Mixed Hierarchies: Keep levels that are different item types connected across tools, such as Linear projects, issues and sub-issues. This needs the Issues (Hierarchy) option.
- Lookups: Sync fields that link to another item, such as Assignee, Cycle, Project or Labels. You can sync the label only, or sync the linked item as its own flow.
- Issues: hierarchy or flat. When you pick what to sync, Linear issues come in two options:
- Issues (Hierarchy): syncs issues with their parent and sub-issue relationships preserved.
- Issues (Flat): syncs issues as a flat list.
