See new GitHub issues in Databox

Keep incoming repository issues visible in your reporting dataset as they are created.

Trigger

New Issue Created

Triggers when a new issue is created in a GitHub repository. Pull requests are automatically excluded -- only true issues produce events. Results can be filtered by labels, assignee, creator, and mentioned user. The payload includes the issue number, title, body, state, labels, assignees, comment count, creator details, timestamps, and direct links to the issue on GitHub.

Action

Push Data to Dataset (V1)

Tool to push data points to a Databox dataset using the v1 API. Use when you need to ingest data records into a specific dataset by providing the dataset ID and an array of records matching the dataset schema.

Why this helps

New issues can accumulate across repositories before anyone assembles an overview of incoming work.

  • Capture new issue activity as it arrives.
  • Review issue intake trends without assembling a manual tally.
  • Keep repository work visible in the business reporting flow.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Databox once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and tell Notis to add each new issue's available number, title, state, labels, and creator details to your Databox dataset.
  • 3Pick the New Issue Created GitHub trigger and its repository.
  • 4Choose where run reports go, then test with one real newly created issue.

Questions about this workflow

Are pull requests included?

No. The New Issue Created event excludes pull requests and emits true issues.

Can I report on issue labels or creators?

The event includes issue details such as labels and creator information when available. The Databox dataset must have a compatible schema.

Does the workflow update when an issue later changes?

This trigger covers issue creation only. Use a separate update-oriented trigger for subsequent changes.
