Project management tools: Jira, Linear, Asana and Monday

Connect your project management tool and let task progress flow into Handl automatically, so your milestones stay up to date without manual chasing.

Steps

Go to Settings → Automation → Integrations.
Find the card for Jira, Linear, Asana, or Monday, and click Connect.
A pop-up window opens — sign in and authorise Handl to access your account.
Back in Handl, link the specific external project (or board/team) to the matching Handl project.
Click Sync now for an immediate pull of tasks, or leave it — scheduled syncs and live updates from your PM tool keep things current automatically.

Good to know

Sync is one-way: changes flow from your PM tool into Handl, not the other way around. Edit tasks in your PM tool as usual.
Task progress rolls up into milestone progress, so you can see at a glance how close a milestone is to done.
Jira also brings across worklogs (time logged against issues), which is handy for cross-checking against your timesheets.
Handl links each task's assignee to your team members by matching email addresses, so tasks and logged work show against the right person. It never matches on names. Assignees it can't match show as unlinked until you map them by hand.
When you connect, the card turns green and shows Connected once Handl has checked the connection. Linking a project starts its first sync straight away and shows you how it went.
A "Discovered projects" view lists external projects you haven't linked yet, so you can connect several at once.

FAQs

Does editing a task in Handl push changes back to Jira/Asana/Linear/Monday? No — the sync only flows one way, from your PM tool into Handl.

How often does it sync? Automatically on a schedule, plus live updates whenever your PM tool sends a webhook for a change, on top of the manual Sync now button.

Can I connect more than one PM tool at once? Yes — different projects can be linked to different tools.
