[Easy Setup] How to Automatically Sync WordPress Data with GitHub

Let's Create a Workflow to Integrate WordPress and GitHub

Let's get started on creating a workflow that integrates WordPress and GitHub!
We'll use Yoom to proceed with the integration of WordPress and GitHub without any coding, so if you don't have a Yoom account yet, please create one using this link.

[What is Yoom]

This time, we will create a flow bot that transfers data to GitHub when a contact is registered in WordPress!
We will create this in the following major steps.

• Integrate WordPress and GitHub with My Apps
• Copy the template
• Set up WordPress triggers and GitHub operations
• Turn on the trigger and verify the workflow operation

Step 1: Connect WordPress and GitHub to My App

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

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

2. On the displayed screen, enter the required fields and click "Add".

3. Next, register GitHub to My App.
Similarly, click on My App on the left side of the Yoom page and select "Add".

Enter "GitHub" in the search box and select GitHub from the search results.
On the displayed screen, enter your email address and password, and click "Sign In".

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

Step 2: Copy the Template

Let's create the flow from here! Since we are using a template, open the following template page 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: Set Up WordPress Trigger

※The following screen will be displayed when you click "[Copy]Register a post from a specific category on WordPress as a GitHub Issue when published" in the Flowbot under "My Projects" on the left side of the Yoom page screen.

1. Click "OK" on the previous screen, and then click the app trigger "When a post is published" 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 recommended to set it to the shortest time possible!
※Triggers can be set to intervals of 5, 10, 15, 30, or 60 minutes. Please note that the shortest trigger interval varies depending on the plan.
※For more details on Yoom plans, please refer to here.

4. After entering, execute "Test" and if successful, click "Save".
※The Retreved value can be used in the next settings as indicated by "You can use These values in other operations".

Step 4: Set Up Branching

1. Click the branch "Command Operation".
※
・The "Branch" operation is available for Mini plans and above. Please note that using it with a 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 take advantage of it.

‍

Set the item you want to detect in the operation "When a post is published" and the retrieved value.
The "Branch Condition" sets the condition for processing the branch destination.

This time, we are using a template to set it as shown in the image below.

After setting, click "Save".

Step 5: Set Up GitHub

1. Click "Create Issue" to link with the app.

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

2. Set up the API connection.
Enter "Owner Name" and "Repository Name" according to the explanation below the input field.

"Title" and "Comment" can be selected from the retrieved value displayed when you click the input field.

After entering, execute "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 Flowbot.

If You Want to Integrate GitHub Data into WordPress

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

Post to WordPress When an Issue with Specific Conditions is Created in GitHub

This flow is recommended for those who manage projects using GitHub and run a blog on WordPress to regularly share technical information.

Other Automation Examples Using WordPress and GitHub APIs

By leveraging the APIs of WordPress and GitHub, various automations can be achieved!
How about the following automations, for example?

Example of Automation Using GitHub

It is possible to automatically notify the creation of an issue and automatically reflect the issue information in another application!

In Conclusion

How was it? By integrating WordPress with GitHub, you can potentially solve challenges such as "wanting to automatically register post content as development tasks," "preventing work omissions," and "streamlining post-publication processes." By triggering issue generation from posts, you can reduce manual workload and enhance team collaboration.
