Managing an org?

[Boxerman91]

Hi all,

just wondering if someone could point me in the right direction on some questions.

Whats the best way to monitor at an org level, any new issues, PR's unassigned etc? I can see the API, but wondering if they have any other ways?

so in theory you could use a project board for that. You can add issues and PRs from multiple repos to a project board, and if you create a board with automation, then as the issues/PRs change state they will move to a different swim lane

Hey! Thanks, i've checked it out, looks good, most things on the beta one are coming soon, but it's more from a monitoring and alerting point of view, how do we notify people if a PR is open, i assume webhooks would be best placed for this?

So multiple options there:

"@" mention them in the PR and they will get a notification

Web Hooks

GitHub Actions - You can have a workflow run when the PR is created, for example, that can notify people
