Business appsBearer tokenConnection test available
Create issues in GitHub repositories (personal access token).
OCNORA ships 65 typed GitHub operations and 1 trigger. Each node has a schema-driven form, input and output tables beside its settings, and is pre-flighted by Workflow Health before your first real run. Endpoints not covered by a typed node are called at https://api.github.com through the HTTP node with the same credential.

Nodes that use your GitHub connection
Beyond its own nodes, these generic nodes accept your GitHub credential. Each chooses the provider from the connection you select, so the same node also works with the other providers shown.
- AI Load Documentsai.loadLoad files, text, JSON, a URL or a GitHub path as normalised documents.
A sample GitHub workflow
- 1Eventtrigger.github_eventStart a run when a GitHub repository or organization event fires.
- 2Download Archivegithub.download_archiveDownload a repository snapshot (zip or tar.gz) as a file blob.
- 3Add Issue Assigneesgithub.add_issue_assigneesAssign users to an issue without removing the current assignees.
An outline built from this provider’s node contracts, not a recorded run. Each step’s output fields are available to the next in the field picker.
Every node below has a reference page: what it does, the connection it needs, its config fields with types, constraints and examples, and the shapes it emits.

Where GitHub fits
GitHub questions
- How does OCNORA authenticate with GitHub?
- With a stored Bearer token credential, shaped {"token"} — a PAT with admin:repo_hook (or admin:org_hook) or the GitHub personal access token or the GitHub access token. A connection test can check it when you add it.
- What can I automate with GitHub?
- 65 typed operations and 1 trigger, each with a reference page listing its config fields and the shapes it emits. The credential also drives 1 generic node.
- What if the GitHub operation I need is not listed?
- Call https://api.github.com from the HTTP node with the same credential, or describe the step to the AI builder, which asks our team for a typed node when one is missing.
- Are there templates that use GitHub?
- Not yet. Start from a blank workflow, or describe the workflow to Build with AI.
- How are GitHub calls controlled?
- Every call and every run step is audited, runs count against the execution budget, and Workflow Health pre-flights the workflow when you save it.
