Linear Webhooks Integration for Push Notifications

ActivitySmith Linear webhooks integration

Use ActivitySmith to get Linear issue, cycle, and project events on your iOS devices based on priority, project, or label - not just whoever happens to be assigned or following the issue. Paste the generated endpoint into Linear, subscribe to the events you want, and route them into push notifications for your team.

Why use this if Linear already sends notifications

Linear's iOS app notifies you about issues you're assigned to or following. That works for your personal queue. It is not enough when the team wants routing based on severity, workflow stage, or project.

ActivitySmith puts those events on the lock screen and in the ActivitySmith log, so the right people see the handoff immediately.

Route by priority, not by assignment. Any P1 issue created in your workspace can go straight to #on-call. No one misses it because they weren't the assignee or weren't following the issue.

Shared sprint visibility. Cycle start and close events can land in a team channel so everyone knows the sprint boundary - without a standup or a manual message to check.

Visibility beyond Linear users. Managers, founders, or adjacent teams who don't live in Linear can still get the signal. Route project milestones and status changes to anyone with ActivitySmith - no Linear account required.

One place for all your team's event routing. If you're already routing GitHub Actions and deployment events through ActivitySmith, Linear fits into the same channels and the same setup.

What you can route

  • Issue created, updated, started, completed, and cancelled events for issue workflow tracking.
  • Cycle start and close events for team-wide sprint visibility.
  • Project update and milestone events for stakeholders outside Linear.
  • Issue identifiers, titles, assignees, priorities, and labels as payload fields for custom notification messages.
