Give every new GitHub issue a Todoist triage step
Notis turns newly opened GitHub issues into concise Todoist tasks, helping you review demand without living in the repository inbox.
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
Create task
Create a new task in todoist. this action allows users to create tasks with various parameters including content, due dates, priority, and more. the task can be created in a specific project, section, or as a subtask of another task.
Why this helps
New bugs, customer reports, and feature requests arrive continuously, but scanning the issue list is easy to defer during a busy week.
- Creates a consistent triage habit for incoming issues
- Separates review work from the full GitHub notification stream
- Keeps the original issue one click away
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect the GitHub and Todoist integrations in Notis.
- 2Ask Notis to create a Todoist triage task for each new issue that matches your plain-language priorities.
- 3Pick New Issue Created and choose where run confirmations should arrive.
- 4Open a real test issue and confirm the task is useful.
Questions about this workflow
Can I limit this to bugs or customer reports?
Yes. Describe the labels, creator, assignee, or other issue criteria in your instruction and use the trigger's available filters.
Will pull requests enter the triage queue?
No. The New Issue Created event automatically excludes pull requests.
