eBay Linear

Keep eBay and Linear updated automatically.

Today you sign in to the seller account, look at what sold and carry it over by hand. What you already processed you track somewhere else. This connector fixes that, and we build it on request: what happens in eBay lands in Linear by itself, in the shape Linear expects. Tell us what you need and we agree exactly what should travel.

The problem

What this connector takes off your hands

  • Today you sign in to the seller account, look at what sold and carry it over by hand. What you already processed you track somewhere else.

  • Today you create the task or the row yourself, or you just remember it and that fails eventually.

What you get out of it

What eBay to Linear saves you

  • Turn every new eBay order into a Linear task automatically.
  • Turn every eBay return into a Linear task automatically.
  • Turn every eBay payout into a Linear task automatically.
  • Turn stock running low on eBay into a Linear task automatically.
  • Turn every cancellation on eBay into a Linear task automatically.
The link

What travels across the link

Everything this connector moves between eBay and Linear, and how often.

  1. Tasks

    to Linear automatically

    This lands in Linear as a task in the list or project you choose, so follow-up does not depend on someone remembering.

  2. Rows

    to Linear automatically

    This arrives in Linear as a new row, so your overview stays complete without you retyping anything.

Both sides

What each side expects

eBay and Linear do not describe the world the same way. This is what has to line up.

eBay

A marketplace supplies orders with their own order number and their own lines, plus returns and cancellations that arrive separately.

Linear

A task list or table wants to know where something belongs, and only stays usable with a fixed layout.

In four steps

Setting it up

  1. 01

    Request the connector

    Let us know you want to link eBay to Linear. We get in touch within 24 hours with a timeline.

  2. 02

    We agree what should travel

    Together we settle what should travel out of eBay. A task list or table wants to know where something belongs, and only stays usable with a fixed layout.

  3. 03

    We build and test

    You see the connector run on a few test records before anything becomes final.

What you need

  • A seller account with API access, created from within the account itself.
  • An account with edit rights, and the list or project it should land in.

Where it runs

On app.schakel.app, with your own Schakel account. No webshop required.

We build this connector on request. Tell us what you need and we reply within 24 hours.

Common questions

Can you connect eBay to Linear?

Yes. Schakel connects through the official APIs of eBay and Linear, so you install nothing on your own server and nothing travels outside those two parties.

Which Linear project or list do the tasks land in?

The project or list you choose. That keeps everything in one place rather than scattered, and follow-up does not depend on someone remembering.

Can I decide what goes into the Linear task or row?

Yes. When setting it up you pick which details from eBay come along, so a task or row in Linear has just enough context.

Do I still have to log into eBay once the connector runs?

No. Once it runs, everything you now look up in the eBay seller account arrives in Linear by itself. You only open eBay when you want to check something yourself.

What does connecting eBay and Linear cost?

You start free and only pay once the connector is really running. After that the same tiers apply as for any other connector, based on how much runs through it each month.

How often does eBay sync with Linear?

That depends on your tier: hourly on the free tier up to real time on the unlimited tier. You can always start a sync yourself as well.

Does the connector also pick up eBay returns and cancellations?

Yes. Besides new orders, Schakel also sees returns and cancellations on eBay, so Linear does not lag behind what actually sold.

What if eBay or Linear is briefly unavailable?

Nothing gets lost. Schakel retries later and the log shows exactly what happened, so at most you notice something coming through a little later.

Missing something you need?

Tell us what eBay and Linear should do for you. If it is not in here yet, that is usually because nobody has asked. We build on request and we reply within 24 hours.
