If you manage a public GitHub repository and want to keep track of all new issues reported by your community inside ClickUp (one of the best project management tools around), you’re in the right place. This guide will show you, step by step, how to automatically turn every new GitHub issue into a ClickUp task - and get an instant Slack alert, too!
No more copy-pasting issues from GitHub to ClickUp, or missing out on new reports because you didn’t check in time. With this automation, every new GitHub issue is instantly added as a task in ClickUp, so nothing slips through the cracks. Plus, a Slack notification keeps you (and your team) in the loop in real time. You stay organized, you save time, and everyone’s on the same page without lifting a finger.
Here’s what you’ll need to set this up:
If you don’t already have a Latenode account, sign up here. This is where all your automations will live.
Once inside Latenode, click Create a New Scenario (for your first automation). You can call your flow something like “GitHub Issues to ClickUp Tasks.”
Click Run Once to make sure everything is working. You may need to create a dummy issue in your repo for testing. This node will output dynamic variables such as issue name, description, sender login, etc.
New GitHub issue alert by *USER_LOGIN*: ISSUE_TITLE 👉 View here: ISSUE_URL
Replace the ALL_CAPS parts by selecting the corresponding fields from the GitHub trigger step.
Test each node to run your automation end to end. You’ll see if each step works and can check your ClickUp and Slack accounts to confirm the results.
Once you’re happy with your tests, hit the main Deploy button. You’ll see a toggle switch showing your flow is now live. Now, anytime a new GitHub issue is created, your flow will do the rest automatically.
