Read & report

Prepare a repository issue review

Bring current open and closed issues into your reporting destination. Review issue titles, descriptions and timestamps while keeping pull requests and code outside this report.

Owner-approved write

Clarify an issue before a client handoff

A teammate proposes a clearer title or replacement Markdown description for an existing issue. The owner reviews the exact text before it reaches the selected repository; issue state and code remain outside this action.

Supported GitHub write actions

Writes start disabled. The owner enables permitted actions and eligible teammates. Only fields supported by an enabled action can be proposed; some actions also support individual owner-selected writable fields.

Update approved issue text

Updates the title and Markdown description of an existing unlocked issue in one selected GitHub Cloud repository. The owner chooses writable fields. Description edits replace existing Markdown; edits containing mentions are rejected. Public repository edits are public and notifications or GitHub Actions may react. External edits can race execution. No code, pull requests, issue state, assignment, comments, creation or deletion.

The owner selects supported writable fields for this action before teammates can propose changes.

Every team member's change needs owner approval

The owner sets access
Choose the connection, permitted actions and eligible teammates. Select individual writable fields where the action supports it.
A teammate proposes a change
Choose an existing record and propose specific supported values. A proposal does not apply the change.
The owner reviews the difference
Check the current and proposed values, then approve that individual change. Changed records or permissions require a fresh review.
Datapipe records the result
View the result in the audit history. An uncertain write is not automatically retried.

Provider permissions and workflows still apply. Source automations or notifications may react to approved changes.

Connected assistants can read available reports. Source changes use the separate Actions & approvals workflow in Datapipe.

Ask AI about your data

Claude or ChatGPT can read the same numbers. You ask in a normal sentence, and the answer stays with your report.

Use an assistant to understand the reports. Propose source changes separately in Datapipe, where the owner reviews and approves every change.

Better than exporting by hand

You can keep a row per day instead of one lump sum.
