Start a project with its repository ready

When a new Slack channel is created for a software project, create its Bitbucket repository as part of the setup.

Trigger

New Channel Created Trigger

Triggered when a new channel is created in Slack.

Action

Create repository

Creates a new bitbucket 'git' repository in a specified workspace, defaulting to the workspace's oldest project if `project key` is not provided.

Why this helps

Starting a project can involve small setup steps that are easy to forget while the team is getting organized.

  • Tie project organization to its code repository setup.
  • Reduce manual setup work at the start of a project.
  • Make repository creation a consistent follow-up to a new project space.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Bitbucket to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal, or ask Notis conversationally to create repositories for new project channels.
  • 3In one plain-language instruction, ask Notis to create a Bitbucket repository only when a new Slack channel clearly represents a software project and provides an appropriate unique name; select the new-channel trigger, choose a run-report channel, and test with one real example.

Questions about this workflow

Will every new Slack channel create a repository?

No. The instruction should limit creation to channels clearly identified as software projects.

What does repository creation require?

The Bitbucket workspace and repository name must be appropriate, and the name must be available.
