Auto add new issues to a project

[geekpulp]

It would be good if new issues on a repo were added to the project automatically. It would make it easier to do triage of new issues and onboard work into a project.

I would add to this the ability to limit the automatic adding only to issue created (or later labels) with specific labels - from a glance at the beta, this looks like the main thing missing to replace the custom automation I have in place on some projects.

I'm in a similar boat. We have a mono repo and use labels with namespaces e.g. domain1:infrastructure, domain1:database, domain2:frontend to identify the different kinds of tickets within the repo, each serviced by a different team.

Ideally, I would like to have labels matching the pattern of domain1:* show up in one project and domain2:* in another project.
And all issues * to show up in a comprehensive board.

I think this can be made with project automations: https://docs.github.com/en/issues/trying-out-the-new-projects-experience/automating-projects.

However, I think there should be a fixed set of "workflows" that you can set from the project, at least something like automatically add issues and PRs of that repo to this project.

@alexcnichols when you say "coming soon" how many years are we talking about? It's been more than a year.

Hi together, 👋🏼

found out that there is a limit for auto-add workflows within an organisation based on the billing account.
https://docs.github.com/en/issues/planning-and-tracking-with-projects/automating-your-project/adding-items-automatically

Do you know a way to delete not needed auto-add workflows within projects? So that we only have the needed auto-add workflows?

Beside appreciation, cool new features within projects! 😉

Thx for helping us out!
