An automated workflow using ifttt
Connects GitHub + GroupMe
Notify your engineers of a new pull request in a GitHub repo.
About this workflow template
This automation scenario allows you to connect GitHub and GroupMe
It can be build using Ifttt, a no-code workflow automation tool. Ifttt allows you to create automated scripts using a simple drag-and-drop interface for non-technical users. This is a ready-made scenario, but it can be customized by adding more apps, actions, filters or branches.

GitHub and GroupMe can also be integrated using automation tools other than ifttt:
How it works?
