[No Code Required] How to Automatically Integrate GitHub Issue Data into WordPress

Let's Create a Flow to Integrate GitHub and WordPress

Now, let's create a flow to integrate GitHub and WordPress!
We'll proceed with the integration of GitHub and WordPress using Yoom without any coding, so if you don't have a Yoom account yet, please create one using this link.

[What is Yoom]

<span class="mark-yellow">This time, we will create a flow bot that transfers data to WordPress when an issue is created in GitHub!</span>
We will create it in the following major steps:

• Integrate GitHub and WordPress with My Apps
• Copy the template
• Set up the GitHub trigger and WordPress operation
• Turn on the trigger and verify the operation of the integration flow

Step 1: Connect My App with GitHub and WordPress

Let's register My App to connect GitHub and WordPress to Yoom.
By completing the My App registration first, you can proceed with the automation settings smoothly.

Before connecting, make sure to create an Issue on GitHub!
※ For this example, we created it as shown in the image below. Labels are used as branching conditions.

1. Click on My App on the left side of the Yoom page screen and select "Add".
Enter "GitHub" in the search box at the top right and select GitHub from the search results.

2. On the displayed screen, enter your username or email address and password, then click "Sign In".

On the next screen, enter the verification code and click "Verify".

3. Next, let's register WordPress with My App.
Similarly, click on My App on the left side of the Yoom page screen and select "Add".

Enter "WordPress" in the search box, select it from the search results, and then enter the required fields on the next screen and click "Add".

If GitHub and WordPress are displayed in My App, the registration is complete.

Step 2: Copy the Template

From here, let's create the flow! Since we are using a template, open the template page below and click 'Try this template'.

The template will be automatically copied to your workspace. Please click "OK" on the next screen that appears.

Step 3: Setting up the GitHub Trigger

* If you are setting up from the middle, click on "[Copy]Post on WordPress when an issue with specific conditions is created on GitHub" displayed in the flow bot under "My Projects" on the left side of the Yoom page screen.

1. Click "OK" on the previous screen, and then click on the app trigger "When a new Issue is created" on the displayed screen.

2. Enter the required fields on the displayed screen. Keep the trigger action as it is and click "Next".

3. Set the details on the displayed screen. Select the "Trigger Interval".

* It is generally recommended to set it to the shortest time!
* The trigger interval can be selected from 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, and 60 minutes. Please note that the shortest trigger interval varies depending on the plan.
* For a detailed explanation of the Yoom plan, please refer to here.

4. Enter the "Owner Name" and "Repository Name" according to the description below the input fields.

5. After entering, execute the "Test" and if successful, click "Save".
* The displayed retrieved value can be used in the next settings as indicated by "You can use these values other operations."

Step 4: Setting up Branching

1. Click on the branch "Command Operation".

* The "Branch" operation is available for Mini plans and above. Please note that using it on the Free plan will result in an error.
* Paid plans like 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 make use of it.

2. Set the item you want to detect in the operation "When a new Issue is created" and the retrieved value. The "Branch Condition" is used as a criterion for whether to proceed to the next setting.

This time, we are using a template to set it up as shown in the image below. Issues that are not Documentation will be filtered out.

After setting, click "Save".

Step 5: Setting up WordPress

1. Click on "Create New Post" to link with the app.

Enter the required fields on the displayed screen and click "Next".

2. Set up the API connection.
Enter each item according to the description below the input fields.

Select "Title" and "Content" from the retrieved value displayed when you click the input fields.

After entering, execute the "Test" and if successful, click "Save".

Step 6: Turn on the Trigger Button and Check the Operation of the Integration Flow

Click the "Turn on Trigger" button on the screen below to automatically start the flow bot.

If You Want to Integrate WordPress Data with GitHub 

This time we introduced how to integrate data from GitHub to WordPress, but if you want to integrate data from WordPress to GitHub, please also use the template below.

This flow is recommended for those who use both WordPress and GitHub and want to automatically generate development tasks when content is published to improve team work efficiency.

Other Automation Examples Using GitHub and WordPress APIs

Beyond the integration of GitHub and WordPress, utilizing each API can automate daily tasks and significantly improve work efficiency.
If you find something intriguing, please give it a try!

Convenient Automation Examples Using GitHub

It is possible to automatically notify or add to chat tools and spreadsheet tools when an issue is created, and to analyze and generate comments using AI features.

It is possible to automate tasks such as sending notifications via email when a post is published, and posting or updating articles based on information from databases, response forms, and web conferencing tools!

Conclusion

Manually integrating GitHub and WordPress can be more cumbersome than expected.

However, by utilizing Yoom, which can be used without coding, you can smoothly create a workflow that suits you without any programming knowledge.
As introduced this time, setting up a system to automatically post to WordPress triggered by an Issue can be done in just a few steps.‍
