How to connect Github and Mailhook
Create a New Scenario to Connect Github and Mailhook
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Github, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Github or Mailhook will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Github or Mailhook, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Github Node
Select the Github node from the app selection panel on the right.

- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Github, Mailhook, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Github and Mailhook integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Github and Mailhook (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Github and Mailhook
Mailhook + Github + Slack: When Mailhook receives an email, it extracts issue details and creates a new issue in a specified Github repository. A notification is then sent to a designated Slack channel.
Mailhook + Github + Discord bot: When Mailhook receives an email containing repository update information, it triggers a search for the repository in Github. A message is then sent to a specific Discord channel with information about the repository update.
