Auto-Paste Issue Comments Into Slack Automatically

Comments land on your Linear issues and are automatically pasted into your team Slack channel. No copy-paste. No lag. Conversations flow naturally.

Trigger

Public Team Comment Created

Fires when a new comment is posted on a *public-team* Linear issue. For private teams (lock icon in Linear's sidebar) use `LINEAR_PRIVATE_TEAM_COMMENT_CREATED`.

Action

Paste Text

Paste text content at the current cursor position - perfect for filling forms, inserting data into text fields, or quick content insertion at focused elements.

Why this helps

Key feedback happens in Linear comments, but your team communicates in Slack. You end up retyping or the conversation stays siloed.

  • Team sees issue context in their primary tool
  • No need to retype or manually share updates
  • Conversations stay visible and accessible
  • Reduces tool fragmentation for team
  • Clear audit trail of discussion

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Browser tool, and ensure Slack is accessible.
  • 2Create automation: 'When a comment appears on my issue, paste it to my team Slack channel with the issue link.'
  • 3Select Public Team Comment Created as your trigger.
  • 4Choose your notification channel.
  • 5Have someone comment on your issue and verify it appears in Slack.

Questions about this workflow

Which Slack channel does it post to?

You specify the channel: '#product-updates' or '#team-discussion'. You can create multiple automations for different channels if needed.

Does it include the commenter's name and timestamp?

Yes, automatically. You can customize the format: 'Include a link back to the issue' or 'Add an emoji reaction to make it stand out.'

Will this flood Slack if there are lots of comments?

You can add conditions: 'Only paste comments from the product lead' or 'Batch hourly instead of instant.' This lets you control volume.
