How it works

Three steps to your first push

STEP 01

Install the recipe

One click in Studio gives you a personal webhook URL.

STEP 02

Paste your URL into Linear

Add it as a webhook for Issues.

STEP 03

Get a push on your phone

With the text, sound and buttons from the recipe.

Setup

How to set up the Linear issues webhook

  1. Click Install in Studio and sign in. The recipe is added to your account and you get a personal webhook URL.
  2. In Linear, go to Settings > API and click New webhook (workspace admins only).
  3. Paste your webhook URL as the URL and pick the team (or all public teams).https://••••••••/•••••••• your personal URL, shown after install
  4. Tick the Issues resource type and save.
  5. Create a webhook under **Settings → API → New webhook** with the URL above, pick the team, and tick **Issues**. Every new issue in that team pushes.
  6. Linear signs deliveries with `Linear-Signature` (HMAC-SHA256), but JustPush doesn't check it yet, so keep your endpoint URL private.
The code

What runs when the webhook arrives

Studio calls handleRequest(request) with the incoming webhook and sends the message it returns. It's yours after install; change anything.

transform.js
1// Linear → new issue
2// Fires when an issue is created in a team your webhook covers.
3// Docs: https://linear.app/developers/webhooks
4
5// Linear priority (0 none, 1 urgent … 4 low) → push priority.
6const PRIORITIES = { 1: 1, 2: 0, 3: 0, 4: -1, 0: 0 }
7
8// Only link to real http(s) URLs.
9function link(url, cta) {
10 return typeof url === "string" && /^https?:\/\//.test(url) ? [{ cta, url }] : []
11}
12
13function handleRequest(request) {
14 const body = request.body || {}
15 const data = body.data ?? {}
16
17 // Guard: only newly created issues.
18 if (body.type !== "Issue" || body.action !== "create") {
19 console.log(`Ignoring Linear ${body.type ?? "unknown"} ${body.action ?? ""}`)
20 return null
21 }
22
23 const details = [
24 data.team?.key ?? data.team?.name,
25 data.priority ? data.priorityLabel : null,
26 data.assignee?.name ? `→ ${data.assignee.name}` : null,
27 body.actor?.name ? `by ${body.actor.name}` : null,
28 ].filter(Boolean)
29
30 return {
31 title: `🆕 ${data.identifier ? `${data.identifier}: ` : ""}${data.title ?? "New issue"}`,
32 message: details.join(" · ") || "New issue",
33 topic: "Linear",
34 priority: Object.prototype.hasOwnProperty.call(PRIORITIES, data.priority) ? PRIORITIES[data.priority] : 0,
35 buttons: link(data.url ?? body.url, "Open issue"),
