"I missed the Issue update again..."
"I overlooked the comment on GitHub..."
Have you ever experienced a delay in your work because you didn't notice changes on GitHub?
Checking the progress of GitHub projects every time is not only time-consuming but also poses a risk of missing out on sharing information within the team.

You can trigger notifications to Microsoft Teams with updates to GitHub Issues or the creation of comments.
This way, you will be notified on Microsoft Teams, helping to prevent missing any actions on GitHub.

[What is Yoom]
This time, we will create a flow bot that "notifies Microsoft Teams when a GitHub issue is updated".
The creation process is broadly divided into the following steps.
Please register GitHub and Microsoft Teams as My Apps to connect them to Yoom.
By registering My Apps in advance, you can proceed with automation settings smoothly.
Register GitHub as My App
1. First, let's register GitHub as My App.
Click "My Apps" → "+ Add" on the left side of the Yoom screen.
Search for GitHub from the list of apps or use the search function to find it.
2. Enter your login information on the following screen and register it as My App.
Register Microsoft Teams as My App
3. Next, register Microsoft Teams as My App.
Click Microsoft Teams from "+ Add" in Yoom and sign in as in (1).
※ There are personal and business plans (Microsoft 365 Business) for "Microsoft 365 (formerly Office 365)." If you do not have a business plan, authentication from Yoom may not work properly, so please be careful.

3. After completing the settings, please create an actual GitHub issue for testing!
This time, we created an issue like the one below↓
4. Set the trigger activation interval from the dropdown according to your needs.
※ The shortest activation interval varies depending on your contracted plan.
5. Copy and paste the following required items from GitHub according to the red frame supplement.
6. After setting, click "Test". If the test is successful, you can obtain the output.
Since this value will be used in the Microsoft Teams settings, check and save the obtained content.
1. Next, click "Command Operation".
※ Notes ※
・The "Branch" operation is available for Mini Plan and above. Please note that using it with the Free Plan will result in an error.
・Paid plans such as the Mini Plan offer a 2-week free trial. During the free trial, you can freely try out apps and features that are usually restricted, so please take advantage of it.
In this flow, we will set it to 'Notify when an issue is newly created or updated'.
Since we are using a template, the settings are basically complete.
Check the content and click "Save".
1. We're already at the last setting item! As before, click the "Send Message to Channel".
2. The following screen will be displayed, so check the settings and press "Next".
3. Select "Team ID" and "Channel ID" from the candidates in the API connection settings.
4. Enter the "Message" with reference to the annotation below the input field.
※ By combining templates and outputs, you can automatically notify according to the content of each data.
This time, we entered the following content for testing↓
5. After completing the settings, proceed to "Next" and click "Test".
If the test is successful, check if the notification has been received in Microsoft Teams!
Finally, click "Turn on the trigger" to complete the automation settings!
