note1 + GitHub

GitHub issues from your meeting notes

note1 turns action items into GitHub issues in the repository you choose, and links the issue when your team already filed it. Meeting notes on GitHub, without the copy and paste.

How matching works

Matched to the issues you already have

Before creating anything, note1 searches the target's open issues and those closed in the last 30 days, and judges whether one already tracks the same work.

01

Already tracked

If an existing issue covers the action item, note1 links it and adds a comment with the meeting quote and a link to the meeting.

02

Possible match

When a match is uncertain, note1 shows it as a suggestion in note1. You approve it with one click, or ignore it.

03

New work

Action items with no match become new issues in GitHub when auto-create is on, which is the default. With it off, they appear as "create" suggestions instead.

Choose Suggest, where matches wait for one-click approval in note1, or Auto-link, where strong matches link automatically and weaker ones become suggestions.

What lands in GitHub

What lands in GitHub

A new issue carries the context from the meeting, so the person doing the work does not need to replay the call.

Title and description

The action item text becomes the issue title, and its description comes along.

Owner and quote

The owner's name, the supporting quote and who said it.

Link to the meeting

A link back to the meeting in note1, with the full transcript and summary.

Closed work flows back into note1

About once an hour, note1 checks linked issues. When one is closed in GitHub, note1 can show a "Possibly done" proposal on the action item, close the item automatically, or do nothing. Your team admin chooses which. Rejected proposals are not repeated.

Good to know

GitHub specifics

Issues go to one repository

Your admin picks the GitHub repository that receives new issues.

No assignee

note1 creates GitHub issues without an assignee. The owner's name is in the issue body.

One-way sync

Sync goes from note1 to GitHub. Editing an action item in note1 after the issue exists does not update the issue, and closing it in note1 does not close the issue.

When items sync

Items sync after each meeting is processed. Manually added items sync when you save them. You can retry a single item, or use Sync all on a meeting.

Frequently Asked Questions

Support
How do I create GitHub issues from meeting notes?

A team admin connects GitHub once with OAuth and picks a repository. After each meeting, note1 creates an issue for each action item with no existing match. It sends action items, not the full meeting notes.

Can note1 send issues to several repositories?

Issues go to one repository, which your admin picks.

Does note1 assign GitHub issues?

No. Issues are created without an assignee. The owner's name is written in the issue.

Will it create duplicates of issues we already filed?

Before creating an issue, note1 searches the repository's open issues and those closed in the last 30 days, and judges whether one tracks the same work. Matches are linked, with a comment, or suggested.

What does the GitHub issue contain?

The action item text as the title, its description, the owner's name, the supporting quote with the speaker, and a link to the meeting in note1.

Does closing an issue update note1?

About once an hour, note1 checks linked issues. A closed issue becomes a "Possibly done" proposal, closes the action item automatically, or does nothing, depending on your admin's setting.

Stop retyping action items into GitHub

Connect GitHub once for your team, pick where items go, and let note1 link or create issues after each meeting.
