Sync GitHub Issue Discussions to Salesforce

Issue comment posted? Salesforce logs it automatically. You're never out of the loop.

Trigger

New GitHub Issue Comment

Triggers when a new comment is added to a specific GitHub issue. Only genuinely new comments are emitted; edits to existing comments do not produce duplicate events. The payload includes the comment ID, text body, author details, timestamps, and direct links to the comment on GitHub.

Action

Create note

Creates a new note attached to a salesforce record with the specified title and content.

Why this helps

Discussion happens in GitHub issues, but your CRM remains silent. Salesforce shows the issue is 'open,' but no one outside the development team knows it's being actively discussed or close to resolution. Context is scattered across platforms.

  • Issue discussions automatically logged in Salesforce
  • Sales and support teams see real-time issue updates
  • No context is lost when switching platforms
  • Reduces duplicate communication

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Salesforce to Notis.
  • 2Create an automation named 'Issue Comments to Notes'.
  • 3Set the prompt to: 'When a new comment is added to a GitHub issue, create a note in Salesforce with the commenter's name, the comment text, and the timestamp. Attach it to the related issue record.'
  • 4Select 'GitHub: New GitHub Issue Comment' as the trigger.
  • 5Test by commenting on a GitHub issue.

Questions about this workflow

Will this create too many notes?

It will create one note per comment. If you find it noisy, ask Notis to only log comments from certain users or containing specific keywords.

Can I sync only important comments?

Yes. Tell Notis to filter by keywords or to only log comments that mention specific team members.
