What it does

When a new or updated issue appears in GitHub, this automation searches Smartsheet for a matching row. If no match is found, it creates a row; otherwise it updates the existing one.

Who it's for

Engineering teams who track GitHub issues in Smartsheet and need both systems to reflect the same data.

How teams use this

Keep issue tracking in sync across tools

New GitHub issues automatically appear as Smartsheet rows, and updates to either system flow to the other. The team sees one source of truth without manual data entry.

Extend sync to project management sheet

Add a Smartsheet with issue status and assignee fields so project managers monitor GitHub work in their own sheet. Issues sync in real time so the sheet always reflects the latest status.

Filter issues by label or milestone

Set a condition so only GitHub issues with a specific label or milestone trigger the sync to Smartsheet. This keeps the sheet focused on the work that matters to the team.

How it works

  1. Monitor GitHub issues. A new issue is created or an existing issue is updated in GitHub, triggering this automation in real time.
  2. Search Smartsheet for matching row. Search Smartsheet for a row that corresponds to the GitHub issue so the automation knows whether to create or update.
  3. Create or update the row. If no matching row exists, create a new one in Smartsheet. If a row is found, update it with the latest issue details from GitHub.
