FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How does Improvado connect to Linear?
Improvado connects to Linear via OAuth 2.0. You are redirected to Linear to approve access, so Improvado never sees your Linear password or a personal API key. The connection takes a few minutes through our guided setup wizard — no coding required. Once authorized, Improvado begins syncing your Linear issues and projects.
What Linear data does Improvado pull?
Improvado extracts Linear issues and projects, including workflow state, priority, assignee, creator, team, project, labels and the full set of timestamps, plus project progress, scope, health, lead and target dates. Teams appear as separate extraction accounts.
How often does Linear data refresh?
You choose the extraction schedule when you set up the connection. Extraction is incremental — each run fetches only the issues and projects that changed since the previous run.
Can the AI agent write data back to Linear?
Yes. The Improvado AI agent can create and update issues and post comments in Linear on your instruction. It cannot change your workspace or team settings — Improvado does not request administrator access. All write operations require explicit permission controls and are fully logged with timestamps, user attribution, and rollback capabilities for governance and audit compliance.
Is Linear data secure with Improvado?
Absolutely. Improvado is SOC 2 Type II, GDPR, and HIPAA compliant with enterprise-grade encryption at rest and in transit. Your raw Linear data never leaves your designated secure environment—it flows through encrypted pipelines directly to your data warehouse. All AI agent access is role-based, logged, and governed with granular permission controls.
How does Linear connect with other platforms in Improvado?
Linear data lands in Improvado's warehouse alongside 500+ other marketing, sales and product sources, so delivery data sits next to the campaigns and revenue it relates to. Agents can run cross-source queries without custom transformations.
