Open a Zoho Desk ticket when a PR review requests changes

Review feedback is easy to read and just as easy to forget once you close the tab. Notis notices when a review is submitted asking for changes and opens a Zoho Desk ticket, so the rework becomes a visible task you can pick up when you are ready to focus.

Trigger

Pull Request Review Submitted

Triggers when a new review is submitted for a GitHub pull request. Emits an event for each newly submitted review on the monitored pull request, covering all review types: APPROVED, CHANGES_REQUESTED, COMMENTED, and DISMISSED.

Create Ticket

Tool to create a new Zoho Desk ticket with subject, description, department, and requester details. Use when you need to create a support ticket in Zoho Desk. Returns the created ticket with id and webUrl for downstream chaining.

Why this helps

A reviewer requests changes, you nod along, then the PR sits untouched because the feedback never became a real task.

  • Review feedback becomes a tracked ticket, not a fading memory
  • You return to rework with the full review context waiting for you
  • Follow-ups stop stalling PRs that are one small change from merging
  • Everything lives in the queue you already check each day

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Zoho Desk to Notis one time in the portal.
  • 2Add a new automation and write it plainly: when a pull request review requests changes, open a Zoho Desk ticket for the follow-up work.
  • 3Choose the GitHub pull request review submitted trigger and set your reporting channel.
  • 4Submit one test review requesting changes and check that the ticket appears in Zoho Desk.

Questions about this workflow

Will approvals also create tickets?

No. You tell Notis to act only when the review requests changes, so approvals and plain comments are ignored.

Can I include the reviewer's comments in the ticket?

Yes. Ask Notis to summarize the review in the ticket and it will carry the feedback across for you.

Does this need any coding?

No. It is one plain-language instruction. Notis reads the review and creates the ticket.
