Description

Automated Workflow for Google Form Submissions, GitHub Issues, and Discord Notifications

This workflow streamlines how new Google Form submissions are processed by automatically creating GitHub issues and sending real-time notifications to a Discord channel through a webhook.

Who Is This Template For?

• Developers looking to centralize bug reporting and issue tracking.
• Project Managers seeking an efficient way to log tasks and updates.
• QA Teams that need a fast, automated process for reporting and resolving issues.

Workflow Overview

1. Google Form Trigger

   • The workflow begins with a Google Sheets Trigger node that checks for new form submissions every minute.

2. Add New Form Submissions to Google Sheets

   • Each new submission is recorded in a dedicated Google Sheet for easy reference and archiving.

3. Filter Out Already Posted Issues

   • An If node checks if the issue is already posted on GitHub by looking for an existing GitHub link in the sheet.

4. Format Message / Output Parsing

   • If the issue is new, an OpenAI Chat Model node generates a structured output, including a title, description, and suggested fix.

5. Add Issue to GitHub

   • The structured output is used to create a new issue in the specified GitHub repository.

6. Send Notification to Discord

   • A Discord webhook is triggered to send a notification to your chosen channel, including a link to the newly created GitHub issue.

7. Add GitHub Link to the Sheet

   • The GitHub issue link is added back to the Google Sheet for easy cross-referencing.

Setup Steps

1. Google Sheets Setup

• Create/Designate a Google Sheet: Ensure it’s set to receive form submissions.
• Configure the Trigger Node: Provide the correct document ID and sheet name in the Google Sheets Trigger node.

2. OpenAI Configuration

• API Credentials: Set up the OpenAI Chat Model node with valid OpenAI API credentials.
• Prompt Definition: Create a prompt that formats the form submission data into a structured output (e.g., title, description, suggested fix).

3. GitHub Configuration

• OAuth Credentials: Configure the GitHub node with your GitHub OAuth credentials.
• Target Repository: Specify the repository where new issues should be created.

4. Discord Webhook

• Webhook URL: Obtain a webhook URL from your Discord server.
• Notification Setup: Use the HTTP Request node to send notifications to your chosen Discord channel.

5. Google Sheets Update

• Document & Sheet Name: Provide the same Google Sheet details used in the first step.
• Add GitHub Link: Update the corresponding row with the newly created GitHub issue link.

Recommended Google Sheet Columns

• Timestamp: Automatically recorded when the form is submitted.
• Issue Title: Generated by the OpenAI Chat Model.
• Issue Description: Detailed breakdown of the issue.
• GitHub Link: Automatically populated once the issue is created.
• Discord Notification Status (optional): Indicates whether the notification was sent successfully.

Additional Notes

• Duplicate Prevention: The conditional logic ensures existing issues aren’t recreated on GitHub.
• AI-Powered Formatting: OpenAI helps structure the issue details, providing clarity for developers.
• Real-Time Alerts: Discord notifications keep your entire team updated on new issues as they arise.
