Connect Excel and GitHub — AI-native workflow automation

Build multi-step AI automations that flow through Excel and GitHub — and chain in 1000+ other apps when the workflow needs them. One instruction, many steps, every API call run by AI. No code, no flowcharts, self-healing.

Excel and GitHub are two anchors of a much bigger automation. Definable Workflow chains your spreadsheet, your dev workflow, and as many other tools as the job needs into a single multi-step flow — built, executed, and verified by AI. Describe the outcome; Workflow plans the steps, runs every API call, branches on conditions, fans out in parallel where useful, retries on failure, and self-heals when an upstream API shifts shape.

What you can automate between Excel and GitHub

6 ways to automate Excel + GitHub

  • When a new pull request is opened in GitHub, log the PR details as a new row in Excel
  • When a GitHub build fails, append a failure entry to the incidents sheet in Excel
  • When a GitHub issue is closed, log the resolution time and assignee in Excel
  • Weekly: export all GitHub deployment activity from the last 7 days into the Excel release tracker
  • When a GitHub PR is merged, update the feature tracking row in Excel with the merge details
  • When a GitHub alert fires, log the alert type, severity, and timestamp in Excel

Most automation tools run code. Workflow runs on AI.

Type it, done.

Create any automation by describing it in plain language. No flowcharts, no drag-and-drop wiring, no developer required.

AI builds it AND runs it.

Other platforms use AI to generate brittle code that runs offline. Workflow's entire execution layer is AI — it interprets, decides, and acts step by step.

Self-healing by design.

Every step is monitored by a verification layer. If something fails — a rate limit, an unexpected response, a skipped condition — Workflow detects it, corrects it, and reruns automatically.

Cross-tool orchestration.

Multi-step, event-driven, condition-based flows across Excel, GitHub, and 1000+ other tools — all from one instruction.

How Definable Workflow automation works — step by step

  1. 1

    Describe your workflow

    Type what you want to happen between Excel and GitHub. No setup wizard.

  2. 2

    Workflow builds it automatically

    Definable maps your instruction to the right actions across both tools. You see the plan before it runs.

  3. 3

    AI executes every step

    Workflow runs end-to-end. It calls Excel, processes the data, applies your conditions, and fires the GitHub action.

  4. 4

    The verification layer monitors everything

    Every step is verified. If something fails, Workflow catches it, adjusts, and retries — without you lifting a finger.

Example workflow

Trigger

When a new event occurs in GitHub

Condition

If the event matches your configured filter

Action

Append the event details as a new row in Excel

Verified

Workflow verified all steps completed successfully.

Frequently asked questions

What can I automate between Excel and GitHub?

Anything you can describe. Workflow connects Excel (your spreadsheet) and GitHub (your dev workflow) through a single instruction. Examples: when a new pull request is opened in GitHub, log the PR details as a new row in Excel; when a GitHub build fails, append a failure entry to the incidents sheet in Excel. There's no limit to step count or branching depth.

Do I need to write code to connect Excel and GitHub?

No. You describe the outcome in plain language and Workflow assembles the steps, authenticates both tools, runs the flow end-to-end, and self-corrects if anything fails.

What happens if Excel or GitHub returns an unexpected response?

Workflow has a verification layer on every step. If a response is malformed, an API rate-limit hits, or a condition is unmet, Workflow detects it, adjusts, and reruns the step automatically — without breaking the flow.

How is this different from drag-and-drop automation tools?

Most automation tools generate static workflows that run brittle code. Workflow is AI-native: the execution layer interprets each step at runtime, so it adapts when Excel ships an API change or GitHub returns a new field shape. You don't maintain it.

How long does it take to set up?

Minutes. Authenticate Excel and GitHub, type what you want to happen, review the plan Workflow generates, and start running.

Your workflows. Built by AI. Run by AI. Fixed by AI.

Stop maintaining automations. Start describing outcomes. Workflow handles everything between Excel, GitHub, and your entire stack.
