Issue Board (Blueprint) template
Engineering teams, agencies and studios running Linear
This template needs your own API key. It shows no data without one. It ships with placeholders, and every screen running it displays a “connect your key” notice until you paste real values in. Nothing here is gated behind a Sheencast add-on: the data comes from your own account at that service, over your own key, against your own quota there.
You supply: Linear API key — create a READ-ONLY key limited to one team (Settings → Security & access). An unscoped key acts as you across the whole workspace. The key is stored with the template in your Sheencast account and is sent only from your own screens to that service. Sheencast neither supplies nor proxies this data, and can't show it to you without your key.
Use a read-only, narrowly scoped key. A key pasted here travels to every screen playing this template and is readable by anyone who can open the template in your dashboard or the page source on the screen itself. Every service below offers a read-only credential limited to a single base, team, repository or calendar. Create that one, not a full-access key, and revoke it at the service if a screen is ever lost.
The template running live, rendered the way your screens render it.
Linear issues on drafting paper: identifier, title and state, over a title block counting what is in progress and what is completed. It needs your own Linear API key — and this is the one to be most careful with, because an unscoped Linear key acts as the person who created it across the entire workspace. Create a read-only key limited to a single team, ideally owned by a service account rather than whoever set the TV up. Until a key is added the board shows sample issues under a standing notice and makes no request.
