Automated GitHub Release Notification via Email

somdn_product_page

This n8n workflow automates the process of monitoring the latest releases in a GitHub repository and sending a formatted email notification with the release details. It is ideal for keeping team members or stakeholders updated on new software versions without manual checks.

The workflow begins with a scheduled trigger that activates at regular intervals, prompting n8n to fetch the most recent release information from a specified GitHub repository via an HTTP request. The release data, returned in JSON format, is then split out to isolate relevant content, which is subsequently converted from Markdown to HTML for better email formatting.

Finally, the processed HTML content is sent through Gmail to the designated email address, sharing information about the latest GitHub release. Useful in development teams or open-source projects, this workflow ensures everyone stays current with new releases with minimal effort.

Two sticky notes are included as visual markers and instructions for customizing the GitHub repository URL and recipient email address, making the workflow easily adaptable for different projects or teams.
