Backendless: GitHub Issues

Use GitHub Issues as a drift notification sink in Backendless GitHub Actions mode

Mode: Backendless GitHub Actions

Use this integration when drift detection runs in Backendless mode.

You can create a GitHub Issue whenever drift is detected, so remediation follows your normal triage workflow. Another notification path is Slack.

Enable in GitHub Actions

Add the following to your drift workflow:

env:
  GITHUB_CONTEXT: ${{ toJson(github) }}
  GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
  INPUT_DRIFT_GITHUB_ISSUES: 'true'
  # Optional: DIGGER_GITHUB_TOKEN or PAT with appropriate scopes

Notes

• Ensure the token has permission to create issues in the repository.
• The issue records the project(s) with drift and links back to context for quick follow-up.
