Practical ways you can use GitHub and Google Sheets
Log GitHub pull request data to Google Sheets
Track GitHub activity by using Zapier to record data about new pull requests into Google Sheets. Whenever a pull request is created, Zapier automatically logs the details to a specified spreadsheet. This provides an organized history of pull requests without manual data entry.
Stay informed about key repository updates. When updates occur on a GitHub repository, Zapier automatically sends a summary to a designated Google Sheet. This helps teams maintain awareness of key changes without having to constantly check GitHub.
Easily archive GitHub issues for better project tracking. When a new issue is created, Zapier captures and logs details into Google Sheets. This simplifies the process of maintaining a project issue log, making it easier to review project statuses over time.

Frequently Asked Questions about GitHub + Google Sheets integrations
New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with GitHub and Google Sheets
How can I automatically add new GitHub issues to a Google Sheet?
To automate the process of adding new GitHub issues to a Google Sheet, one can set up a trigger using our platform. The trigger monitors when a new issue is opened in your desired repository on GitHub. Once detected, an action is executed to add the details of the issue into a designated Google Sheet.
Is it possible to update Google Sheets when a pull request is merged in GitHub?
Yes, it is possible. We offer triggers for events such as when a pull request is merged in GitHub. This can prompt an action that updates specific rows or columns in your connected Google Sheets with information from the pull request.
Can I track commits made to my repository in Google Sheets?
Absolutely, you can track commits by setting up a commit trigger in your GitHub repository. Our system will log each commit's details like author, timestamp, and message into your chosen Google Sheet automatically.
How do I configure alerts for newly created branches appearing on my Google Sheets?
To receive alerts for newly created branches shown on Google Sheets, you would set up a branch creation trigger within GitHub. Our integration will then capture and record each new branch into your specified sheet.
Can deleted repositories be logged into Google Sheets automatically?
Yes, by using the repository deletion trigger provided in our integration suite, any repository that gets deleted will be automatically logged onto your specified Google Sheet.
Is there an option to log opened pull requests directly into my spreadsheet?
Certainly! Once an open pull request event occurs in GitHub, our configured triggers allow you to capture those details and reflect them directly within your designated spreadsheet seamlessly.
What if I want notifications for changes made to specific files within my repo captured on Sheets?
We support file change triggers that notify and record any modifications detected in particular files on your specified repo as entries within your chosen Google Sheet immediately upon detection.
