How to connect GitHub to Bird

What you'll need

  • An active GitHub account with repository access
  • An active Bird account with permission to install apps
  • A free Arahi AI account (sign up takes 30 seconds)

  1. Create your Arahi AI account

    Sign up at app.arahi.ai — it takes 30 seconds and starts a 7-day free trial.

  2. Authenticate GitHub

    Grant Arahi access to your repositories, issues, and project data. You control which repos and projects the integration can access.

  3. Authenticate Bird

    Grant Arahi permission to read and post messages in your selected channels. You control which channels the integration can access.

  4. Choose your trigger

    Select the event that starts your workflow. Popular triggers include: new commit pushed in github or new message received in bird.

  5. Configure the action

    Define what happens when the trigger fires — for example, send message in bird. Map the data fields between GitHub and Bird.

  6. Test and activate

    Run a test to confirm data flows correctly between GitHub and Bird, then toggle the workflow on. It runs 24/7 with automatic retries and error monitoring.

  • Create GitHub issues directly from Bird messages with one automated workflow
  • Get Bird alerts when critical GitHub issues are opened or escalated
  • Keep product and engineering teams aligned without leaving Bird

Frequently asked questions

How do I connect GitHub to Bird?
Sign up for a free Arahi AI account, then click "Add Connection" to authenticate both GitHub and Bird via OAuth. Choose a workflow template — like syncing developer tools events to communication actions — customize the field mapping, and activate. The entire setup takes under 5 minutes.
What can I automate between GitHub and Bird?
You can automate a wide range of workflows: sync new GitHub events to Bird actions, trigger Bird updates when GitHub data changes, create Bird records from GitHub events, and build conditional workflows with filters and field mapping. Each workflow runs 24/7 with automatic retries.
Is the GitHub and Bird integration free?
Arahi AI includes 100 free actions per month on the Starter plan — enough for most small teams. If your GitHub-to-Bird workflows need more volume, paid plans start at $49/month with unlimited workflows and priority execution.
Is my GitHub data secure when connected to Bird?
Yes. Arahi uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication — we never store your GitHub or Bird passwords. All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Your developer tools data is only accessed when a workflow runs, and you can revoke access at any time from your Arahi dashboard.
Can I sync data both ways between GitHub and Bird?
Yes. You can set up workflows that trigger from either GitHub or Bird. For example, create a workflow where GitHub events update Bird, and a separate one where Bird changes sync back to GitHub. Each direction is configured independently so you have full control.
Do I need technical skills to connect GitHub and Bird?
No coding is required. Arahi's visual workflow builder lets you configure triggers, actions, and field mapping with clicks. If you can use GitHub and Bird, you can set up the integration. Most users are running their first workflow within 10 minutes.
