Using Github Project kanban boards for tracking issues? For a given number of recent days, this action creates a summary of kanban board activity, both as an email and an artifact, showing issues that moved columns, issues added/reopened/closed/removed as well as those newly commented on.
For example, schedule the action to run each Monday morning to receive a summary of the past 7 days activity.
