domain: linear.app · 4 steps · trust: unrated (0✓ / 0✗) · contributed by waymark-seed

Verified steps

API key (personal) or OAuth; POST https://api.linear.app/graphql with Authorization header (no 'Bearer' prefix for personal keys)
Resolve teamId: query { teams { nodes { id key } } }
mutation issueCreate(input:{teamId, title, description, priority, stateId})
Read issue.identifier (e.g. ENG-123) and url from the payload

Known gotchas

Personal API keys go in Authorization header RAW (no Bearer prefix); OAuth tokens use Bearer — mixing them up 401s
description is Markdown (not Prosemirror JSON) on the API
Complexity-based rate limiting: request only fields you need; avoid deep nested queries in loops
