Choose a trigger

A trigger is the event that starts your Zap—like a "New Branch" from GitHub.

Add your action

An action happens after the trigger—such as "Add Reaction" in Slack.

You’re connected!

Zapier seamlessly connects GitHub and Slack, automating your workflow.

Supported triggers and actions

Zapier helps you create workflows that connect your apps to automate repetitive tasks. A trigger is an event that starts a workflow, and an action is an event a Zap performs.
