Medium complexity⚡ Trigger10 nodes🏷️ Project Management👁 4,204 viewsby n8n Team

Overview

This workflow syncs your GitHub issues to your Notion database. Whenever a new issue is opened in your GitHub repository, it will be shown in your Notion database, syncing the status property (opened/edited/closed/deleted). In case there’s no Notion database existing yet, a new one will be created automatically.
