GitHub Integration
Notification Synchronization
The GitHub integration imports your GitHub notifications into Universal Inbox, giving you a centralized place to manage all your GitHub activity.
What Gets Synchronized
You receive GitHub notifications for various activities you're subscribed to:
- Conversations: Comments on issues, pull requests, or gists
- Repository Activity: Updates in repositories you watch
- CI/CD: Status updates from GitHub Actions workflows
- Repository Content: Issues, pull requests, releases, security alerts, and discussions (if enabled)
Managing Your Subscriptions
To control which GitHub notifications you receive, visit GitHub's documentation on managing your subscriptions.
Limitations & Important Notes
Due to GitHub API limitations, notifications can only be marked as read, not truly deleted. When you delete a GitHub notification in Universal Inbox, it will still appear in your GitHub notification inbox and will be marked as read.
Unsubscribing from Notifications
Universal Inbox allows you to unsubscribe from receiving future updates on issues, pull requests, and other GitHub items.
When you unsubscribe from a notification in Universal Inbox, the notification will remain in your GitHub notification inbox and will be marked as read. This is due to the same GitHub API limitations mentioned above.
Available Actions
With the GitHub integration, you can perform these actions directly from Universal Inbox:
- View detailed notification content
- Mark notifications as read/unread
- Unsubscribe from future updates
- Convert notifications to tasks in your task management tool
