Prerequisites: QA.tech automatically detects issues during test runs. You
can set up the integration without any issues, but you’ll need at least one
detected issue before you can export. See Issues to
learn what types of issues are detected.
Setup
1
Connect to Linear
Go to Settings → Integrations in your project settings. Click “Manage
Connections” at the top, then add the Linear integration. Follow the OAuth
flow to grant QA.tech access to your Linear workspace.
2
Configure the Project
Return to Settings → Integrations and click on the Linear integration.
Select the Linear Team where you want exported issues to appear, then
click “Save Linear Integration”.
Exporting Issues
Once configured, you can export any QA.tech issue to Linear:1
Go to Issues
Click Issues in the sidebar to see detected issues.
2
Select an Issue
Click on an issue to view its details.
3
Click Export
In the Link section, click “Create issue”. The issue will be created
in your configured Linear team.
What Gets Exported
When you export an issue, Linear receives:- Title: The issue title from QA.tech
- Description: Includes:
- Issue type
- First seen date
- Issue description
- Help/hint information (if available)
- Link back to QA.tech
- Console error details (for console errors: error level, file location, line numbers, messages)
Using Linear in Chat
Once your Linear connection is set up, the AI Chat Assistant can search your Linear issues and create new ones directly from the chat interface. You can ask the assistant to:- Search issues by keyword or topic
- Fetch a specific issue by its key
- List recent issues from your connected team
- Create new issues with a title and description in your configured Linear team
“Search Linear for issues related to checkout”
“Show me DEV-42”
“What are the most recent issues in Linear?”
“Create a Linear issue titled ‘Fix mobile nav overlap’ with a description of the layout bug on small screens”
If you have both Linear and Jira connected, mention which tracker you want
(e.g. “search Linear”). If you do not specify, the assistant defaults to
Linear when both are configured.
