Turn new GitHub issues into Zoho Desk tickets automatically

Issues pile up in GitHub while your customer conversations live in Zoho Desk, and keeping them in sync by hand is exhausting. Notis watches for each new issue and opens a matching Zoho Desk ticket, so nothing reported ever falls through the crack between the two tools.

Trigger

New Issue Created

Triggers when a new issue is created in a GitHub repository. Pull requests are automatically excluded -- only true issues produce events. Results can be filtered by labels, assignee, creator, and mentioned user. The payload includes the issue number, title, body, state, labels, assignees, comment count, creator details, timestamps, and direct links to the issue on GitHub.

Action

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

Bug reports land in GitHub, support requests land in Zoho Desk, and you are the only bridge between them until something gets dropped.

  • Every reported issue automatically has a support ticket, no manual copying
  • Your team triages bugs and customer requests in one familiar place
  • You stop being the human relay between GitHub and Zoho Desk
  • The issue's full description carries over so nobody re-reads the repo

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Zoho Desk to Notis one time from the portal.
  • 2Add a new automation and describe it in plain words: when a new issue is created in GitHub, create a matching Zoho Desk ticket.
  • 3Choose the GitHub new issue trigger and set the channel where Notis reports each run.
  • 4Open one test issue and check that the ticket shows up in Zoho Desk.

Questions about this workflow

Does this include pull requests?

No. The new issue trigger only fires for true issues, so your pull requests will not create tickets.

Can I limit it to issues with a certain label?

Yes. Just say so in your plain-language instruction and Notis will only create tickets for issues that match.

What if I want the ticket in a specific department?

Name the department in your instruction and Notis will place the ticket there when it creates it.
