How it works

Every step, explained

Import the template and this whole chain runs on autopilot — here's exactly what happens on each run.

GitHub → Email → Google Sheets

3 steps

TRIGGER

GitHub · New Star

The workflow starts whenever a "New Star" event happens in GitHub, capturing its data for the steps below.

ACTION

Email · Send Email

Email — send an email using built-in WP mail function or custom SMTP. Data is mapped from earlier steps; connect your Email account on import.

ACTION

Google Sheets · New Spreadsheet Row

Google Sheets — trigger when a new row is added to the spreadsheet. Data is mapped from earlier steps; connect your Google Sheets account on import.

Why this workflow

Import the JSON, connect your accounts, and go live in minutes. Every step is pre-mapped — you only add your own credentials.

Self-hosted on your WordPress install. No per-task fees, no data leaving your infrastructure, no monthly SaaS bill.

Open it in the visual builder and reshape it — add branches, swap apps, insert filters. A starting point, not a cage.
