Bring review decisions into your team's shared channel
Keep review outcomes visible by sending submitted GitHub pull request reviews to Backendless.
Trigger

Why this helps
Review decisions can be buried among comments, leaving the next person unsure whether work is approved or needs changes.
- Make submitted review outcomes easier to notice.
- Give the team a shared place to see review activity.
- Reduce follow-up messages asking for the latest decision.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Backendless in the Notis portal once.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for review decisions.
- 3In one instruction, tell Notis to publish the reviewer's decision and relevant pull request context to a Backendless channel.
- 4Pick the Pull Request Review Submitted trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real review and make sure the message clearly states its outcome.
