Automatically convert GitHub issues labeled as bugs into support tickets in your helpdesk system and track resolution progress. Ideal for open-source projects managing community feedback.

Workflow Steps

GitHub

Trigger on new issues with 'bug' label

Set up a webhook or use Zapier to monitor when new issues are created with the 'bug' label in your repository. This ensures only genuine bug reports trigger the workflow.

Zapier

Extract issue details and format data

Use Zapier to capture the issue title, description, reporter information, and repository details. Format this data into a structured format suitable for your support system.

Create support ticket with GitHub context

Automatically create a new Zendesk ticket with the formatted GitHub issue information. Include the original issue URL, priority level based on labels, and assign to the appropriate support team.

GitHub

Add comment with ticket reference

Post an automated comment on the original GitHub issue with the Zendesk ticket number and expected response timeframe, keeping the community informed of progress.
