Configuring the Linear Team, Status, Assignee & Auto-Create

Before starting the configuration, ensure you have connected your Linear Account with your BugBase Account.

1. Navigate to the integrations tab located in the settings page of your BugBase Program.

2. Click on the Configure button on the Linear Integration Card.

3. A popup will appear where you can:

   • Select the Team where your reports should be created as issues.

   • Choose the Linear status created issues should be set to (for example Backlog or Todo). Leave it blank to use your team's default.

   • Choose a Default assignee for created issues, or leave it as Unassigned.

   • Toggle Auto-create issue from reports on or off, and pick the BugBase status that should trigger it.

4. Click on Save and the Linear Integration will be configured.

Auto-Create

When Auto-create issue from reports is enabled, a Linear issue is created automatically in your selected team based on the trigger status you choose:

• New (on report submission) — an issue is created as soon as a report is submitted to your program.

• Triaged — an issue is created once a report has been triaged, so only validated reports reach Linear.

Every issue — whether created automatically or manually — is opened with the status and assignee you configured. If you prefer to keep control, leave auto-create disabled and create issues manually from any report whenever you need to.

🎉 Congratulations! You've successfully connected Linear with your BugBase Program
