Route new GitHub pull requests into Todoist
Notis turns matching pull requests into Todoist tasks so reviews, release checks, and owner follow-ups enter a deliberate queue.
Trigger
New Pull Request Created
Triggers when a new pull request is created in GitHub, matching the optional configured filters. Emits an event for each newly created pull request. Supports filtering by repository, owner/organisation, author, assignee, label, state, base branch, head branch, and draft status.
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 pull requests can pile up across repositories, and the cost of repeatedly checking each queue breaks concentration.
- Consolidates incoming pull requests into one planning view
- Supports focused review blocks instead of constant checking
- Keeps author, branch, and pull request context close
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Todoist once through Notis.
- 2Ask Notis to create a Todoist triage task for each new pull request matching your priorities.
- 3Select New Pull Request Created and choose a channel for run results.

Questions about this workflow
Can draft pull requests be excluded?
