Keep E-mail and Linear updated automatically.
This connector fixes that, and we build it on request: what happens in E-mail lands in Linear by itself, in the shape Linear expects. Tell us what you need and we agree exactly what should travel.
What this connector takes off your hands

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

What each side expects
E-mail and Linear do not describe the world the same way. This is what has to line up.
Linear
A task list or table wants to know where something belongs, and only stays usable with a fixed layout.

Common questions
Can you connect E-mail to Linear?
Yes. Schakel connects through the official APIs of E-mail 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 E-mail come along, so a task or row in Linear has just enough context.
What does connecting E-mail 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 E-mail 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.
What if E-mail 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.
How do I connect E-mail to Linear?
You give Schakel access to E-mail and Linear once and pick what should travel. We set it up together with you, so no technical knowledge is needed, and after that it runs by itself.
Is my E-mail data safe in this connector?
Your credentials are stored encrypted and we only process what is needed to update Linear. We sell nothing on and comply with the GDPR.
Missing something you need?
Tell us what E-mail 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.
