Does this work with Github Issues Beta?

Not sure, has anyone tried it?

[rsioss]

We tried it with a beta project, and unfortunately it failed. From looking at the GH docs, it appears that beta projects require use of the GraphQL API instead of the REST one.

I wanted to do the same and in case you need it, I end up using this: https://github.com/leonsteinhaeuser/project-beta-automations

Ahh, that looked promising, but it looks like it only supports updating the issue status (doesn't appear to support moving issues to a particular column on the beta project board, which is what we wanted to do).

[matthewmayer]

as far as i know, the beta project boards currently only support having columns as the different issue statuses

[rsioss]

it appears that I was too hasty to dismiss the beta action in that case... I mistakenly jumped to the conclusion that status and column were different attributes. I'll give it a shot, thanks for following up!

Doesn't seem to recognise the GH projects beta because they are within a user or organisation and not in a repo. Do you think this is something you could support?

As suggested higher up in this thread I'd suggest trying https://github.com/leonsteinhaeuser/project-beta-automations instead

The code is fairly easy to modify for your needs for example I made a version which removes an issue from a project board too https://github.com/matthewmayer/project-beta-remove
