The Linear integration can now link Honeybadger errors to existing Linear issues—useful for preventing duplicate issues when an error corresponds to work that's already in progress.

When [viewing an error in Honeybadger](https://docs.honeybadger.io/guides/errors/#anatomy-of-an-error), here's how to link it to an existing Linear issue:

1. Navigate to the error page in your Honeybadger project
2. Click the dropdown arrow next to **Create issue** in the [error actions](https://docs.honeybadger.io/guides/errors/#error-actions)
3. Select **Link existing issue** to open a search dialog
4. Search for your Linear issue by number or title

Honeybadger searches within your configured Linear project and displays matching issues with their titles and issue numbers.

Once linked, you can jump to the Linear issue directly from the error actions, and (when enabled) Honeybadger will keep the error status in sync when you close or re-open the issue.
