What you can automate

The Linear integration works in both directions โ€” push briefs out to Linear, or trigger briefs from inside Linear.

BriefMe โ†’ Linear

Every brief gets posted as a comment on the relevant Linear issue or project.

1

Connect BriefMe

Sync your Google Calendar. BriefMe detects engineering meetings automatically.

2

Set up the Zapier Zap

Trigger: Brief Ready in BriefMe. Action: Create comment on Linear issue or post to Slack.

3

Brief lands in Linear

The meeting context is logged as a Linear comment โ€” tied to the right issue or project.

๐Ÿ”ท

Issue review meeting notes

Post the brief for issue review meetings as a Linear comment so everyone has context in the same place.

๐Ÿ”ท

Stakeholder sync documentation

Log briefs from stakeholder syncs directly to the relevant Linear project โ€” keeping meeting context tied to the work.

๐Ÿ”ท

Post-mortem context

Log the pre-meeting brief to the Linear incident issue so all context is captured alongside the post-mortem.

Linear โ†’ BriefMe

Linear cycle and issue events trigger briefs for your whole engineering team.

1

Get your BriefMe webhook URL

In BriefMe Settings > Integrations, copy your inbound webhook URL.

2

Set up Zapier with Linear as trigger

Trigger on cycle started, issue status changed, or project milestone โ€” action calls your BriefMe webhook.

BriefMe generates the brief and posts it to your team Slack channel or back to Linear.

Does BriefMe pull from Linear directly?
