Create a pull request in GitHub when a specific event is scheduled in Cal.com

■Overview

After coordinating schedules in Cal.com, do you still create GitHub pull requests for related development tasks manually? These repetitive tasks take time and can easily lead to mistakes, such as forgetting to create a pull request. With this workflow, you can connect Cal.com and GitHub to automatically create a pull request whenever a specific event is scheduled. Eliminate inefficient manual work and create an environment where you can focus on more important development tasks.

■Who This Template Is For

• Developers who use Cal.com and GitHub regularly and find it time-consuming to connect the two tools manually
• Project managers who want to prevent missed or delayed GitHub pull requests after scheduling events in Cal.com
• Anyone looking to improve overall team productivity by automating repetitive tasks for their development team

■Benefits of This Template

• Automatically create a GitHub pull request when an event is scheduled in Cal.com, reducing the time previously spent on manual work.
• Prevent human errors, such as forgetting to create a pull request or entering incorrect information when transferring data manually.

■Workflow

1. First, connect Cal.com and GitHub to Yoom.
2. Next, select Cal.com as the trigger and set it to “When an event is scheduled (Webhook).”
3. Add a branch operation and configure it so that subsequent actions run only when specific conditions are met based on the information retrieved from Cal.com.
4. Then, configure an AI operation to extract the information required for the pull request from the Cal.com event details.
5. Finally, configure GitHub’s “Create pull request” action as an operation to create a pull request based on the information extracted in the previous step.

※“Trigger”: An action that starts the workflow. “Operation”: An action that processes data within the workflow after the trigger runs.

■Customization Options

• With the branching feature, you can set custom conditions for triggering subsequent operations based on information retrieved from Cal.com, such as the event title and attendees.
• For AI-powered text extraction, you can set Cal.com event details and other data as variables and customize the workflow to extract the information you want to use when creating the pull request.
• For GitHub’s pull request creation action, you can freely set fixed values or information retrieved in previous steps as variables for fields such as the title and description.

■Important Notes

• Connect both Cal.com and GitHub to Yoom.
• Branching is an operation available on the Mini Plan and above. On the Free Plan, configured workflow operations that use branching will result in an error.
• Paid plans, including the Mini Plan, come with a two-week free trial. During the free trial, you can use apps and features (operations) that are otherwise subject to plan restrictions.
