Keep Linear and Microsoft Teams updated automatically.
Today it sits in a list or a spreadsheet, and afterwards someone retypes it into the system that actually has to act on it. This connector fixes that, and we build it on request: what happens in Linear lands in Microsoft Teams by itself, in the shape Microsoft Teams expects. Tell us what you need and we agree exactly what should travel.

Common questions
Can you connect Linear to Microsoft Teams?
Yes. Schakel connects through the official APIs of Linear and Microsoft Teams, so you install nothing on your own server and nothing travels outside those two parties.
Can I choose which events send me a Microsoft Teams message?
Yes. You decide which events from Linear produce a message, for instance a new order but not a stock change.
Which Microsoft Teams channel do the notifications land in?
The channel you choose. You can also send different kinds of notification to different channels, so it does not become one big stream.
From what moment in Linear does something reach Microsoft Teams?
As soon as you add or finish the row or task in Linear that you chose as the trigger, it reaches Microsoft Teams.
What does connecting Linear and Microsoft Teams 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 Linear sync with Microsoft Teams?
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.
Do I get one Microsoft Teams message per event or a summary?
By default it is one short message per event, one line on what is happening. If you would rather have a digest, we settle that when setting it up.
What if Linear or Microsoft Teams 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 Linear and Microsoft Teams 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.
