Linear - Create PDF, Word, Excel Documents
Linear can connect with Documentero to automatically create reports and documents based on your development activity. When a new issue is created or updated in Linear, Documentero can generate a PDF, DOCX, or XLSX file using your custom templates. This makes it easy to keep stakeholders updated with structured reports without manual work. Teams can also export comments or issue histories into formatted documents for sharing or record-keeping.
