1

Create your Arahi AI account

Sign up at app.arahi.ai — it's free and takes 30 seconds. No credit card required. You'll land on the dashboard where you can create your first workflow.

2

Authenticate CircleCI

Click "Add Connection" and select CircleCI from the app directory. You'll be redirected to CircleCI's authorization page. Grant Arahi access to your repositories, issues, and project data. You control which repos and projects the integration can access.

3

Authenticate Linear (OAuth)

Same process for Linear (OAuth). Click "Add Connection," select Linear (OAuth), and authorize access. Grant Arahi access to your workspaces, databases, pages, and tasks. You select which workspaces the integration can read and write to.

Choose your trigger

Select what event starts the workflow. For this integration, popular triggers include: new commit pushed in circleci or new item created in linear (oauth). The trigger fires automatically whenever that event happens — no manual intervention.

5

Configure the action

Define what happens when the trigger fires. For example: create item in linear (oauth). Map the data fields between CircleCI and Linear (OAuth) so the right information lands in the right place.

6

Test and activate

Run a test to confirm data flows correctly between CircleCI and Linear (OAuth). Check that the fields map as expected, then toggle the workflow on. It runs 24/7 from here — Arahi handles retries, error logging, and monitoring automatically.
