Draft reviewer follow-ups from GitHub pull request changes

Keep review ownership clear without manually chasing every request.

Trigger

GitHub Pull Request Reviewers Changed

Triggers when the list of requested reviewers (users or teams) for a pull request changes — for example when a reviewer is added, removed, or re-requested. The payload includes the full current reviewer list (users and teams with details), which reviewers were added, which were removed, and the previous reviewer list for reference.

Action

Create email draft

Creates an outlook email draft with subject, body, recipients, and an optional attachment. supports creating drafts as part of existing conversation threads by specifying a conversationid; attachments require a name, mimetype, and content.

Why this helps

  • Supports clear review handoffs
  • Keeps important PRs moving
