Are you looking for a way to create ClickUp task from new GitHub issues automatically? If yes, then let us introduce the most amazing tool named Pabbly Connect.

Basically, Pabbly Connect is an integration & automation software that lets you migrate data from one app to another in real-time.

How to Create ClickUp Task from New GitHub Issues

Before we start the integration process, let’s know a little bit about both the services. So, GitHub is a code hosting platform that allows you to share code with friends, co-workers, classmates, and even complete strangers. Whereas, ClickUp is a cloud-based collaboration and project management tool that allows you to manage your projects, people, etc in one place.

After integrating these applications, whenever you will create an issue in the GitHub account, a task will get generated automatically in the ClickUp account.

Even though, there is no direct integration possible for these two services yet. But here in this blog, we are going to use Pabbly Connect to make this integration possible.

With the help of this software, you can easily share data within multiple premium services. Moreover, you don’t need any coding skills to do so, as anyone can use them effectively. Plus, this would be just a one-time setup, after that, the data will instantly be transferred in real-time.
