Connect GitHub to Salesforce
When an issue is opened in GitHub, Genexti creates a lead record in Salesforce automatically, with an AI writing the content on the way through. You describe it in plain English, and there is nothing to code and no separate AI subscription to buy.
Plenty of people need to know what engineering is doing without ever opening GitHub. Support, sales, whoever is answering to a customer. Sales works from a CRM that reflects reality instead of last week.

Three of the most common ways teams wire these two together. Each one is a single workflow in Genexti.
An issue is opened → Create a lead record
The moment an issue is opened in GitHub, Genexti reads the issue, lets an AI write it up properly, and creates a lead record in Salesforce.
A pull request is merged → Update the matching contact
The moment a pull request is merged in GitHub, Genexti reads the issue, lets an AI write it up properly, and updates the matching contact in Salesforce.
A release is published → Open a case for the team
The moment a release is published in GitHub, Genexti reads the issue, lets an AI write it up properly, and opens a case for the team in Salesforce.
How to connect GitHub to Salesforce
Describe it in plain English
Type what you want. Something like "when an issue is opened in GitHub, create a lead record in Salesforce". Genexti's AI builds the whole workflow, both steps included, and lays it out on the canvas so you can see exactly what it will do.
Connect both accounts once
Connect GitHub and Salesforce from the connections screen. You only do this once, and every future workflow reuses the same connection, and credentials are stored encrypted, never in the workflow itself.
Run it, then turn it on
Run it once and inspect the real output of each step. When it looks right, activate it. From then on it runs by itself, and you can see every execution with its full input and output.
Why use Genexti for this instead of Zapier?
Most tools can move a issue from GitHub into Salesforce. The difference is what happens in between. Genexti includes the AI, so the issue arrives in Salesforce already summarised, categorised and written up like a person did it, instead of a raw dump of fields. And because the AI is part of the platform, it isn't metered separately or billed per task.
Genexti is also a website builder and a code IDE in the same account, so the same subscription that runs this automation also builds the site the issue came from.
Questions about GitHub and Salesforce
How do I connect GitHub to Salesforce?
In Genexti you describe it in plain English. Say "when an issue is opened in GitHub, create a lead record in Salesforce" and the AI builds the workflow, both steps included. You connect each account once and it runs on its own from then on.
Do I need to write any code?
No. There is nothing to install and no script to maintain. If you want to see the detail, every step opens into an advanced view where you can edit fields, expressions and the raw JSON. You never have to.
Can the AI write the content that goes into Salesforce?
Yes, and that's the difference. Genexti includes the AI, so an AI step can summarise the issue, pull out the fields that matter and phrase a lead properly before it reaches Salesforce. There's no separate AI subscription and no per-task AI charge.
Is connecting GitHub and Salesforce free?
You can build and run this on the free plan without a credit card. Paid plans lift the limits, and the AI is included on every plan instead of being billed per task.
