GitHub + Harvest

Add tasks in Harvest for new GitHub issues

An issue in GitHub usually means that something isn't right and action needs to be taken to fix it. That takes time, which can be tracked in Harvest. Use this Zapier integration to automatically add a task in Harvest whenever a new issue is created in GitHub so you can start solving the problem immediately.
