Write automation to see latest GitHub updates

Question

In my tickets I can see my github changes in the "development" section. In that section there is also a last update date against the item (like merge, commit etc).

I would like to write an automation that gives back all the issues that were merged in GitHub today.

Is this possible?

I am not familiar with the GitHub REST API. But I might give it a try. Thanks.

Hi @Cathy.Schriever -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

I have not tried that, and there is nothing built-in for rules to do it.

Perhaps a Jira Automation rule with a scheduled trigger could use the Send Web Request action to call the GitHub REST API to get the information.

Kind regards,
