GitHub App

⚠️ This app is no longer maintained, please migrate to Support Requests.

A GitHub App that comments on and closes issues labeled as support requests.

Usage

  1. Install the GitHub App for the intended repositories
  2. Create .github/support.yml based on the template below
  3. Start labeling issues as support requests

If possible, install the app only for select repositories. Do not leave the All repositories option selected, unless you intend to use the app for all current and future repositories.

Configuration

Create .github/support.yml in the default branch to enable the app, or add it at the same file path to a repository named .github. The file can be empty, or it can override any of these default settings:
