Frequently Asked Questions
How does Linear integration handle team workflows?
Durable automatically adapts to each team's custom workflow states, issue types, and priorities. When creating issues, you can specify states and settings specific to each team's configuration.
Can I use custom fields and properties?
Yes! Through the GraphQL query execution capability, you can access and modify any custom fields or properties defined in your Linear workspace, giving you complete flexibility.
How are attachments managed?
Attachments are automatically downloaded with correct file names and extensions, and can be easily uploaded to issues. All attachment metadata is preserved for proper organization.
What happens when I archive an issue?
Archiving in Linear is idempotent - you can safely archive the same issue multiple times without errors. Archived issues remain accessible but are filtered from active views.
How do cycles and sprints work?
Linear cycles represent time-boxed work periods. Durable can retrieve all cycles, assign issues to specific cycles, and track progress within sprint boundaries for effective planning.
Can I filter issues by project or assignee?
Yes. When listing issues, you can filter by project ID, assigned user, or both to quickly find relevant work items for your workflow.
