營運

Check configured GitHub repositories daily and notify Slack when their latest release was published within the last 24 hours.

[在 Open Flow 中使用](https://console.openflow.run/flows?importUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fraw.githubusercontent.com%2Foomol-lab%2Fawesome-workflow-templates%2Ff2bf5895d91486412f320151dafd9c6b95b42091%2Fworkflows%2Fgithub-release-slack-alerts%2Ftemplates%2Fgithub-release-slack-alerts.openflow.json)

*   [Open Flow JSON](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/oomol-lab/awesome-workflow-templates/f2bf5895d91486412f320151dafd9c6b95b42091/workflows/github-release-slack-alerts/templates/github-release-slack-alerts.openflow.json)
*   [n8n JSON](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/oomol-lab/awesome-workflow-templates/f2bf5895d91486412f320151dafd9c6b95b42091/workflows/github-release-slack-alerts/templates/github-release-slack-alerts.n8n.json)

Check the latest release of each configured GitHub repository every day. Send one Slack message per release published within the preceding 24 hours.

## Setup

For Open Flow, import the JSON and configure:

| Node | Configuration |
| --- | --- |
| Daily release check | Set the schedule and timezone. The default is midnight UTC. |
| Read latest releases | Edit the repositories array and connect GitHub in the node’s Actions settings. |
| Send release alerts | Replace `YOUR_SLACK_CHANNEL_ID`, connect Slack in Actions, and invite the bot to the channel. |

The example repositories are `n8n-io/n8n` and `home-assistant/core`. For n8n, edit the list in **RepoConfig**, connect Slack in **Send Message**, and replace its channel ID. GitHub reads use the public latest-release API; add a GitHub credential on the HTTP node if your repository requires authentication.

Enable the workflow after setup. It reads one latest release per repository, in list order, before sending any notifications. An empty list or no recent releases sends no messages. A read failure stops all notifications; a Slack failure stops later messages. Rerunning can send duplicate alerts, and an earlier Slack message may already have been delivered. GitHub’s latest-release endpoint omits drafts and prereleases; a repository with no published release fails that read.

## Changes to the source

*   Use a correct 24-hour date comparison and an explicit UTC schedule.
*   Handle a missing release body as empty text, use the tag when a release name is absent, and link to the public release page.
*   Escape Slack mention/link markup in repository names and release text.
*   Keep repository identity with each release and preserve the order of reads and notifications.
