Github workflow automation

Question

I try to automate workflow in my GitHub project kanban board.

The goal is: when the issue is closed and card located in "Closed" column I want to get notification via email that this issue was closed 30 days ago and I maybe want to do something with it.

I checked in Github workflow documentation, there is an event:

on:
  project_card:
    types: moved

But it will not work in my case. I need to specify that this card is closed and located in "Closed" column.

Answer 1

There is no "closed" activity type in the "Automating your workflow with GitHub Actions / events / Project Card section.
Which seems logical if "closed" is considered as a status, not an activity for a project card.

There is a "closed" activity type for issues though, which means you might monitor issues instead, considering an issue event comes with project_card["column_name"] attribute.
It is the name of the column that the card is listed in.
