Create new Github Repository?

Hey All!

 

Using Zapier to automate our project setup process for our agency. Each project requires a new github repository to be created for the project.

 

My current setup is that I’ve created a Google Form that our PMs can fill out with fields that when submitted, the response spreadsheet would trigger a series of actions that we repeatedly to like: set up new slack channel with project name, create trello board with project name...etc

 

One major important step is missing which is setting up a NEW github repository with the projects name. It appears that “Create New Repository” is not supported as an Action in the Zapier Github integration.

 

Does anyone know of a way that I can create this action? Is it possible through using webhooks?

 

Thanks!

Hi @brian_fishermen 

You may have to explore leveraging the GitHub API: https://docs.github.com/en/rest

This can be done thru Webhook actions: https://zapier.com/apps/webhook/integrations#triggers-and-actions

great I’ll take a look through this and try to cook something up. Thanks for the help @Troy Tessalone !
