Set the Linear trigger as “New issue added”

Add the Linear trigger to your playbook to initiate actions when a new issue is added.

To do this, click "Add trigger" in your playbook. Select the "New issue added" trigger option from the dropdown menu under Linear. It will enable your playbook to automatically identify newly added issues and trigger necessary actions.

If you still need to connect your Linear account to Relay.app, a prompt will guide you through the connection process.

If your Asana account still needs to be connected to Relay.app, you will be prompted to complete that connection. Make sure to allow the necessary permissions for Relay.app to sync with your Asana account.
