Setup Guide - Reverse ETL

Linear reverse ETL allows you to sync data on a schedule from your Weld App automatically into Linear. You can sync data from your SQL models, dbt models, or raw warehouse tables to the following Linear objects:

Step 1 - Choose Destination

  1. Click on the Reverse ETL button in the side bar and click + New on the top right.
  2. Search for Linear and select your connected Linear account.
Choose Linear as the Reverse ETL destination

Step 2 - Map Data

  1. Select your source — a SQL model, dbt model, or raw table/view from your warehouse.
  2. Select your destination object (comment or issue).
  3. Choose a sync mode: Insert, Update, or Upsert.
  4. Set up the identifier — the source column that uniquely matches records in Linear (e.g. id).
Select source, destination object, sync mode and identifier

Step 3 - Field Mapping

Map the columns from your source to the corresponding fields in Linear. Required fields (e.g. Title and Team ID for issues) must be mapped.

Map source columns to Linear fields

Your source should have one row per object for Reverse ETL. For example if you are performing a reverse ETL to the issue object then you should have one row per unique issue. Requires Primary key.

Step 4 - Schedule Sync

  1. Choose Independent or Orchestration schedule.
  2. Select the sync frequency.
  3. Click Start Sync to begin.
Configure schedule and start the Reverse ETL sync
