Use this interactive demo to learn how to manage and track your assigned issues in Linear.

Quick summary

Linear's My Issues view gives every team member a personalized workspace that surfaces assigned issues, created issues, subscriptions, and recent activity in one place. Use filters, grouping, drag-and-drop reordering, labels, and comments to manage your workload without leaving the view.


Steps

  1. Navigate to the Inbox section in the top-left sidebar and open the My Issues tab.
  2. Review the curated list of issues most relevant to you, including those assigned to you, created by you, issues you're subscribed to, and those with recent activity.
  3. Switch between the four tabs — Assigned to me, Created by me, Subscribed to, and Activity — to scope your view.
  4. Apply filters to focus on specific issue types within the view.
  5. Group issues by project, team, or status to organize your workload.
  6. Use drag and drop to move issues between sections and update their status.
  7. Update the issue status directly from the My Issues view to keep progress current.
  8. Add labels to your issues to improve categorization and searchability.
  9. Use the comment section to communicate progress or ask for clarifications on any issue.

📌 Why this matters

Linear's My Issues view solves a common problem for fast-moving engineering teams: context-switching across multiple projects to find the work that actually matters to you. By centralizing assigned issues, subscriptions, and activity in a single personalized view, it reduces time spent searching and keeps individual contributors focused on their highest-priority tasks. Features like drag-and-drop status updates, inline filtering, and grouping by project or team make issue management faster and more intuitive than traditional task trackers. For teams that rely on Linear for sprint planning and bug tracking, the My Issues view is a critical productivity tool that surfaces the right work at the right time.
