Linear is a modern software development management platform that centralizes product planning, tracking, and delivery in a single place. Designed for product and engineering teams, Linear combines issue tracking, sprint management, roadmaps, and workflows into a fast, minimalist interface, helping teams maintain focus, speed, and consistency throughout the development lifecycle.

With Erathos, you can integrate Linear data into Azure Synapse in just a few minutes. Our platform handles the entire data movement process to your analytical environment, allowing you to blend this data with other sources in your Data Warehouse. This way, your time is focused on what actually drives value — extracting powerful insights and making data-driven decisions.

### What Linear data does Erathos sync with Azure Synapse?

The integration automatically syncs the main Linear objects:

- **Projects** — status, assignees, dates, and settings
- **Issues and subtasks** — priority, status, estimates, and assignees
- **Sprints** — dates, velocity, and planning data
- **Members** — users, roles, and workload
- **Comments** — history of discussions and decisions
- **Custom fields** — properties and tags customized by the team

### Why sync Linear with Azure Synapse?

In Azure Synapse, you integrate Linear data into the Microsoft ecosystem: Power BI for executive dashboards, Azure Data Factory for orchestration, and distributed analytics at enterprise scale.

### How it works

Erathos connects to Linear via the official API and syncs your data incrementally — only new or updated records are processed on each run, keeping pipelines fast and Azure Synapse costs predictable. You choose the sync frequency (from 5 minutes to daily), the objects to sync, and the target dataset. Every run is logged with full observability: execution time, rows processed, contextual errors, and instant alerts via Slack or email if anything goes wrong.
