About This Workflow
GitHub Slack Bot – Automated Issue Notifications
This workflow automates the process of notifying a Slack channel whenever a new issue is created or updated in a GitHub repository.
How It Works:
Webhook Listener (GitHub Webhook Node)
- The workflow starts by receiving real-time GitHub issue events via a webhook.
- It captures details such as the issue title, status, labels, assigned user, and repository name.
Data Processing (Set Properties Node)
- Extracts and organizes key issue details from the GitHub event payload.
- Ensures the message includes relevant information, making it easy to track issues.
Slack Notification (Slack Node)
- Sends a structured message to a designated Slack channel.
- The message includes a direct link to the GitHub issue, the creator’s username, labels, the assigned person (if any), and the repository name.
- Uses Slack’s Block Kit formatting for clear and easy readability.
Business Impact:
✅ Improves visibility – Engineers and support teams get instant alerts on new issues.
✅ Reduces response time – Team members can quickly take action without manually checking GitHub.
✅ Enhances collaboration – Ensures that support, engineering, and product teams stay aligned.
This workflow streamlines issue tracking, helping teams stay proactive in resolving bugs and feature requests efficiently.
