"Do I have to do this task manually again..." Have you ever felt that way?

In the interactions of the development team, there are surprisingly many manual tasks such as managing GitHub issues and notifications for pull requests. Every time you open a different tool, copy and paste messages, and repeat, it becomes difficult to focus on important tasks.

The solution to this problem is the integration of GitHub and Microsoft Teams. For example, you can automatically send notifications to Microsoft Teams when a new pull request is created, or create an issue on GitHub triggered by a specific message. This allows for smooth information sharing across the team while preventing any oversight in tasks.

In this article, we will introduce specific use cases of what can be achieved by integrating GitHub and Microsoft Teams. Why not reduce tedious manual work and make your development tasks smoother?

For those who want to try it quickly

By using Yoom, you can easily integrate GitHub and Microsoft Teams without any code. Yoom provides templates for integrating GitHub and Microsoft Teams, so you can achieve integration immediately just by registering, even without API knowledge.

What You Can Do by Integrating Microsoft Teams and GitHub

If you want to make communication within your development team smoother, why not integrate Microsoft Teams with GitHub? You can automate the creation of GitHub issues when specific messages are received or send notifications to Teams when there is a new Pull Request. This reduces manual work and allows you to manage tasks efficiently. It helps prevent oversights and enables speedy information sharing, which is a significant advantage.

You can experience the integration of Microsoft Teams and GitHub immediately by clicking "Try it out" on the automation example you're interested in and registering an account. Registration is completed in 30 seconds. Feel free to give it a try!

Notify Microsoft Teams When a Pull Request is Created on GitHub

When a new Pull Request is created on GitHub, a notification is automatically sent to Microsoft Teams. This allows team members to quickly understand changes, making code review responses smoother and development progress more efficient. It eliminates the need for manual notifications and prevents missing Pull Requests, making it easier to manage the entire project.

Notify Microsoft Teams when a new issue is created in GitHub

By integrating Microsoft Teams with GitHub, you can significantly improve task management efficiency. It allows you to automatically share necessary information while reducing manual work, ensuring smooth operations for the entire team. Why not enhance communication and make your development projects more comfortable?

Regularly Retrieve GitHub Issues List and Notify Microsoft Teams

To efficiently manage tasks in a development project, regularly notify Microsoft Teams of the GitHub issues list. This makes it easier for all team members to understand the latest task status, facilitating smooth progress checks during meetings. It eliminates the need to manually compile information, leading to increased work efficiency.

Let's Create a Microsoft Teams and GitHub Integration Flow

API integrations that previously required programming can now be done easily without any programming! Try it out and experience the simplicity for yourself. If you don't have a Yoom account yet, you can create one using this registration form.

[What is Yoom]

In this article, we will explain how to set up a flow bot that "Notify on Microsoft Teams when a Pull Request is created on GitHub."

Flow Bot Setup Process

  • Integrate GitHub and Microsoft Teams with My Apps
  • Copy the template
  • Set up actions for GitHub and Microsoft Teams
  • Turn on the trigger to complete the flow setup

Step 1: Set Up My App Integration

Here, you will configure the settings to register the app information to be integrated with Yoom. After logging into the Yoom workspace, click "+ Add" on the My Apps screen.

A list of apps available in Yoom will be displayed. Search for the app you want to integrate using the search box, and proceed to register it as My App.

GitHub

Search for GitHub using the search box and click on the app name to display the GitHub sign-in screen.

After entering your GitHub account information, click "Sign In" to complete the My App integration.

Microsoft Teams

Select Microsoft Teams from the search results. You will be redirected to the Microsoft sign-in screen, where you will enter your Microsoft 365 login information.

After entering and adding your login information, the registration of Microsoft Teams as My App is complete.

Step 2: Copy the Template

Once the My App integration is complete, proceed to set up the Flowbot template. Please proceed to copy the template from the banner below.

When the popup below appears, click "OK" to start the setup!

The copied template will be added to My Projects. You can access My Projects from the left menu bar.

Step 3: App Trigger "When a pull request is created"

Click on the first step of the template to set the trigger (starting point) of the Flowbot. In this step, you will set the activation interval of the Flowbot and specify the GitHub repository.

(1/2) Select Your Account

The following items are pre-set on this screen.

  • Title
  • App
  • Account information connected to GitHub
  • Trigger Action

Click "Next" to proceed.

(2/2) API Connection Settings for the App Trigger

  • Trigger Interval
    • Set the trigger interval for the Flowbot. *The shortest trigger interval varies depending on your subscription plan.
  • Repository Owner Name
  • Repository Name
    • Open the repository to detect the pull and check the URL.
    • Since the structure is "https://github.com/{owner}/{repository}/", enter the corresponding values.

Once channel selection is complete, click the "Test" button. If the test is successful, you can obtain the items and values that occur during a pull request. In Yoom, the items and values obtained are called Retrieved value.

Below is a list of retrieved values. You can use these values in the content to be notified in Microsoft Teams.

Click "Save" to proceed to the next step.

Step 4: Send a Message to a Channel to Integrate with the App

Click on the second step of the template. In this step, you will set up a template message to notify Microsoft Teams.

(1/2) Select Linked Account and Action

The following items are pre-set on this screen.

  • Title
  • App
  • Linked Account
  • Action

Click "Next" to proceed.

(2/2) API Connection Settings

  • Team ID
    • Click the edit field to open a dropdown, and the team names of the linked Microsoft Teams will be displayed. Selecting one will quote the ID in the edit field.
  • Channel ID
    • Similarly, click the edit field < display the dropdown menu < select a channel from the candidates to quote the ID.

After selecting the ID, scroll to proceed to the next setting.

  • Message
  • Create a template message to notify Microsoft Teams. In the pre-set, a generic template message may be entered. To use retrieved values from GitHub, click the edit field < dropdown menu < clisck "When a pull request is created".

  • In Microsoft Teams, HTML tags are supported to display notification messages in a rich and structured form. Therefore, you need to insert the tag <br/> for line breaks.
  • To set a mention, enter the value in the box to link the mention value below the message edit area. Similarly, insert values for attachment information.

Once the required fields are entered, click "Test". If successful, the test content will be notified in Microsoft Teams.

Step 5 (Final): Turn ON the App Trigger

Once all steps are set, a completion screen will be displayed.

Turn ON the trigger to activate the Flowbot.

You can toggle the trigger ON/OFF from the toggle at the top left. The Flowbot setup is easily completed without programming. In the next part, we will introduce a Flowbot template starting with Microsoft Teams.

Since chat interactions can be directly converted into tasks, there is no worry about overlooking, and the development flow becomes smoother.

Create a GitHub Issue When a Message is Posted on Microsoft Teams

When a task-worthy topic arises in a conversation on Microsoft Teams, you can automatically register that message as a GitHub Issue. This eliminates the hassle of switching tools and allows you to add tasks quickly. It makes it easier for the development team to manage tasks in a timely manner and prevents any tasks from being overlooked.
