Google Sheets Linear

Keep Google Sheets and Linear updated automatically.

Today you keep everything in a spreadsheet and then retype it into the system that actually has to act on it. This connector fixes that, and we build it on request: what happens in Google Sheets lands in Linear by itself, in the shape Linear expects. Tell us what you need and we agree exactly what should travel.

Tasks
The problem

What this connector takes off your hands

  • Today you keep everything in a spreadsheet and then retype it into the system that actually has to act on it.

  • 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 Google Sheets to Linear saves you

  • Turn every task you finish in Google Sheets into a Linear task automatically.
  • Turn every new row in Google Sheets into a Linear task automatically.
The link

What travels across the link

Everything this connector moves between Google Sheets 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.

Both sides

What each side expects

Google Sheets 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.

In four steps

Setting it up

  1. 01

    Request the connector

    Let us know you want to link Google Sheets 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 Google Sheets. 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 Google account with edit rights on the spreadsheet, and the tab the rows should go into.
  • An account with edit rights, and the list or project it should land in.

Common questions

Can you connect Google Sheets to Linear?

Yes. Schakel connects through the official APIs of Google Sheets 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 Google Sheets come along, so a task or row in Linear has just enough context.

From what moment in Google Sheets does something reach Linear?

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

What does connecting Google Sheets 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 Google Sheets 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 Google Sheets 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 Google Sheets to Linear?

You give Schakel access to Google Sheets 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.

Missing something you need?

Tell us what Google Sheets 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.
