Linear'dan Iceri Aktarma

The Linear importer migrates issues, workflow states, labels, priorities, assignees, and comments from a Linear team into a SetGet project. Because both Linear and SetGet use state-group-based workflows, the mapping is straightforward.

  • A Linear account with access to the team you want to import.
  • Admin or Owner role in your SetGet workspace.

Kurulum adimlari

Adim 1 -- Baglanma to Linear

  1. Go to Settings > Import.
  2. Select Linear.
  3. Click Authorize with Linear.
  4. Linear's OAuth page appears. Click Authorize.
  5. You are redirected back to SetGet.

Adim 2 -- Select the Linear team

  1. Select the Linear workspace from the dropdown (if you belong to multiple).
  2. Select the team to import.
  3. SetGet scans the team and displays: issue count, state count, label count, cycle count.

Adim 3 -- Choose the target project

  • Create new project -- uses the Linear team name.
  • Import into existing project -- select an existing project.

Adim 4 -- Map workflow states

Linear and SetGet both organize states into groups, making this mapping natural:

Linear state groupLinear state (example)SetGet state groupSetGet state (suggested)
BacklogBacklogBacklogBacklog
UnstartedTodoUnstartedTodo
StartedIn ProgressStartedIn Progress
StartedIn ReviewStartedIn Review
CompletedDoneCompletedDone
CancelledCancelledCancelledCancelled

The importer auto-suggests mappings based on matching group names. Adjust as needed.

Adim 5 -- Map priorities

Linear and SetGet both use five priority levels:

Linear prioritySetGet priority
UrgentUrgent
HighHigh
MediumMedium
LowLow
No priorityNone

This mapping is automatic and does not require manual intervention.

Adim 6 -- Map labels

Linear labels are imported as SetGet labels. The importer creates any labels that do not already exist. If a label with the same name exists in SetGet, it is reused.

BehaviorDescription
Matching namesReused without creating a duplicate
New namesCreated with a default color
Label groupsFlattened (Linear label groups become individual labels)

Adim 7 -- Configure options

TIP

If you are migrating from Linear, the workflow model is very similar to SetGet. Most teams find the transition seamless with minimal state remapping needed.

Linear projelerini yonetme

Linear uses "Projects" as grouping containers above issues (similar to epics). In SetGet, the equivalent is a Module. During import:

  • If you enable "Import as modules", each Linear project becomes a SetGet module.
  • If you prefer a flatter structure, Linear projects are imported as labels instead.
  • Work items retain their project/module association.

TIP

If your Linear workspace uses projects extensively, map them to modules for the closest structural equivalent. This preserves the ability to track progress by module.

After importing from Linear, help your team find their way:

  1. Share a mapping of Linear team names to SetGet project names.
  2. Point out any differences in the sidebar navigation.
  3. Note that Linear's "Triage" maps to SetGet's "Intake" feature.
  4. Remind the team that keyboard shortcuts differ between the two tools.
