Questions

Is there a free way to see Clockify time in Linear?

Our guide Clockify and Linear: how to see tracked time on your Linear issues compares the free ways, Zapier and this add-on.

How does it know which issue the time is for?

From the issue ID in the time entry’s description, like “APP-142 Fix login”. Clockify’s browser extension fills it in when you start a timer on linear.app. If a description has more than one ID, the first one gets the time.

Does it change anything in Clockify?

No. It only reads time entries and reports from Clockify.

What does it change in Linear?

Only its own “Clockify time” link, in the issue’s Resources list. It updates that link in place.

Is the price per user?

No. $29 a month covers the whole workspace, however many people track time.

Where do I get it?

On the Clockify Marketplace. Clockify bills it, and you cancel there.
