How to Automatically Turn Forms into Linear Issues

Automating your workflow by turning form submissions directly into Linear issues helps your team save time and stay organized. In this guide, we will walk you through mapping form information to Linear issues using Submit Actions.

Step-by-Step Guide

1. Access Submit Actions

• Log in to your dashboard and select the form you want to edit.

• Navigate to and click on Submit Actions from the top menu.

2. Configure the Linear Issue

• Select Work Type: Choose the specific work type (or issue template) that will be generated in Linear after the form is submitted.

• Customize Issue Name: Customize the issue title by using variables for dynamic content. You can map specific form fields directly to the issue title so they are easily identifiable.

• Add a Description: Add a variable to the issue description to create a complete form summary, ensuring all submitted data is neatly organized within the ticket.

3. Publish and Test

• Click Publish to save your changes and see the setup in action.

• Open the live form, fill in some sample info, and submit the form to test it out.

4. Review in Linear

• Go to the Linear team or project connected with your Service Desk.

• Locate and open the newly created issue in your triage or active board to review the mapped information.
