Build a Probot App

Optimized for GitHub

Receive webhooks and use the authenticated client to access the GitHub API. Granular permissions give each app access only to the data it needs and nothing more.

Easily scriptable

Focus on what you want to build. A simple API—built on the latest ES6 JavaScript features—hides the details you don't care about.

export default (app) => {
  app.on('issues.opened', async context => { 
    const params = context.issue({ body: 'Hello World!' })
    await context.octokit.issues.createComment(params) 
  })
}
