LinearB integrates directly with Slack through WorkerB, delivering real-time, in-channel insights that help teams stay aligned with their development and review workflows. WorkerB supports both team-level and personal alerts.

Note: WorkerB is available on paid plans only. Slack integration is not supported on free-tier accounts.
Setting up Slack integration for your organization

To connect LinearB to Slack:

  1. Go to Settings > Company Settings.
  2. Select the Slack tab.
  3. Choose the team you want to connect and click Connect Slack.
  1. You’ll be redirected to Slack’s authorization page. Click Allow to complete the connection.
Authorization is required only the first time you connect a Slack workspace. Connecting additional teams in the same workspace does not require reauthorization.
Verifying the connection

Once connected, the selected Slack channel will receive a confirmation message. This message includes a “Sign me up!” button.

Any team member can click this button to start receiving personal WorkerB alerts.

  • Team alerts – Insights such as WIP overload, review activity, delivery risks, and goal tracking.
  • Personal alerts – Developer-specific notifications such as PR reminders and review requests.

To manage alert settings:

  1. Go to the Slack tab in Company Settings.
  2. Open the Notifications section.
  3. Enable or disable alerts as needed.
  4. Use Edit notifications and Edit Slack channel to fine-tune alert timing and destinations.
