All 17 actions with their inputs

Set it up

About two minutes, once per project or once for the whole workspace.

  1. Open Integrations in the builder

    Backend panel, Integrations tab, then GitHub. To connect it for every project, use Workspace settings, Integrations.

  2. Sign in to GitHub

    You sign in to GitHub and approve access. Appbricx keeps the tokens, encrypted, and refreshes them.

    • repo
    • read:user

    This uses an OAuth app: the platform's, or your own from the admin panel, and you can bring your own credentials.

  3. Call an action

    From a workflow, by integration id and action name. The call answers with success, output and, when it fails, the reason.

    Workflow
    // .workflow.js (native ctx)
export async function run(ctx) {
  const res = await ctx.integrations.invoke("github", "github_create_issue", {
    "repository": "<repository>",
    "title": "<title>"
  });
  if (!res.success) throw new Error(res.error);
  ctx.log.info("GitHub answered", { output: res.output });
}
