Connect Linear to Yasu to export cost-saving insights directly as Linear issues. Yasu uses OAuth to securely connect to your Linear workspace, letting you push optimization recommendations into your team’s existing workflow with one click.

​
Prerequisites

Before you start, make sure:
  • You have a Linear workspace with permission to authorize third-party OAuth apps
  • You have a team and project in Linear where issues should be created

​
Steps

1

Navigate to Integrations

  1. Log in to your Yasu dashboard at app.yasu.cloud
  2. Go to Settings → Integrations
  3. Click Connect next to Linear
2

Authorize Yasu in Linear

You will be redirected to the Linear OAuth consent screen.
  1. Review the requested permissions:
    • Read access to your workspace
    • Write access to your workspace
  2. Click Authorize
  3. You will be automatically redirected back to Yasu
Yasu automatically refreshes the OAuth token. You do not need to re-authorize unless you explicitly revoke access in Linear.
3

Configure defaults

After authorization, configure your default export settings:
  • Team — The Linear team where issues will be created
  • Project — The default project for new issues
  • Priority — Default issue priority
  • Assignee — Default assignee for exported issues
These defaults apply when exporting insights. You can override them per issue.
4

Export your first insight

  1. Go to any cost-saving insight in your Yasu dashboard
  2. Click the Export to Linear button
  3. Review the issue details and adjust team, project, or assignee if needed
  4. Confirm the export
The issue appears in your Linear team within seconds, linked back to the original insight in Yasu.

Troubleshooting

Common causes:
  • Your Linear workspace has restrictions on third-party OAuth apps
  • You do not have permission to authorize apps in the workspace
Solution:Check with your Linear workspace admin to confirm third-party OAuth apps are allowed. If your workspace uses SSO, ensure your session is active before authorizing.
Common causes:
  • The OAuth token has not fully propagated yet
  • The authorized user does not have access to the expected teams
Solution:Refresh the page. If the lists remain empty, disconnect the integration from Settings → Integrations and reconnect.
Common causes:
  • Default team, project, or priority are not configured
  • The selected assignee is not a member of the target team
Solution:Go to Settings → Integrations → Linear and verify all default fields are set. Ensure the assignee belongs to the selected team.
