Practical ways you can use Coda and GitHub
Track code commits in Coda
Every time a new commit is made in GitHub, Zapier adds a new row in Coda with the relevant commit details. This creates a single source of truth for tracking code changes, making it easier for engineering teams to stay aligned.
Engineering
Update Coda with new GitHub issues
When a new issue is created in GitHub, Zapier automatically updates a row in Coda with the issue details. This keeps your issue tracker housed in Coda up-to-date without manual entry, improving visibility and reducing delays.
IT
Sync GitHub pull requests to Coda
When a new pull request is created in GitHub, Zapier logs the Pull Request details in a designated Coda table. This ensures all relevant PRs are easily accessible within project tracking documentation, reducing the need for multiple tools.

Frequently Asked Questions about Coda + GitHub integrations
New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with Coda and GitHub
How do I set up an integration between Coda and GitHub?
To set up an integration between Coda and GitHub, start by selecting the triggers and actions you'd like in both systems. You'll need to authenticate your GitHub and Coda accounts within our platform. Follow the guided in-app instructions to choose specific triggers (like new issue creation) and actions (such as updating a table in Coda) that match your workflow.
What kind of triggers can I use with the Coda and GitHub integration?
Triggers for the Coda-GitHub integration include events like a new issue being opened, a pull request review being requested, a new branch being created, or a commit that meets certain criteria. You can select these triggers based on what best suits your use case.
Which actions can be automated in Coda with this integration?
With the integration, actions you can automate in Coda include creating or updating rows in tables, sending notifications, and syncing data from GitHub repositories directly into your documents to keep your information up-to-date.
Can I customize the data fields that are transferred from GitHub to Coda?
Yes, when setting up your integration, you have control over which data fields from GitHub are transferred into Coda. This customization ensures that only relevant information is synced between the two platforms.
How does authentication work for integrating Coda with GitHub?
Authentication involves securely linking your GitHub account with our platform using OAuth. This process ensures that we don't have access to your login credentials but can interact with your GitHub account under agreed permissions.
What should I do if my integration between Coda and GitHub isn’t working properly?
If you encounter issues with the integration, begin by checking your connection settings for any errors. Ensure both accounts are authenticated correctly. Double-check trigger conditions in GitHub or action steps in Coda for any misconfigurations.
Is it possible to trigger multiple actions in Coda from a single event in GitHub?
Yes, one of the features of our platform is setting up workflows where a single event in GitHub (like closing an issue) can trigger multiple actions inside Coda—such as updating several tables or sending multiple notifications simultaneously.
