Linear Trengo

Keep Linear and Trengo 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 Trengo by itself, in the shape Trengo expects. Tell us what you need and we agree exactly what should travel.

Common questions

Can you connect Linear to Trengo?

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

Is a ticket created automatically in Trengo?

Yes. What arrives from Linear becomes a ticket in Trengo for the right customer, so a question does not sit somewhere unanswered.

Does Trengo recognise the sender as an existing customer?

The sender is looked up by email in Trengo and attached to the existing contact; with no match, a new contact is created.

From what moment in Linear does something reach Trengo?

As soon as you add or finish the row or task in Linear that you chose as the trigger, it reaches Trengo.

What does connecting Linear and Trengo 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 Trengo?

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 Linear or Trengo 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 Linear to Trengo?

You give Schakel access to Linear and Trengo 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.

Missing something you need?

Tell us what Linear and Trengo 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.
