GitHub Security Report → Google Sheets Dashboard
Transform GitHub's AI-detected security findings into a comprehensive dashboard in Google Sheets for executive reporting and trend analysis across multiple repositories.
Workflow Steps
GitHub API
Fetch security alerts data
Set up API calls to GitHub's security alerts endpoint to retrieve vulnerability data from multiple repositories. Use personal access tokens with appropriate security scopes to access CodeQL findings.
Google Apps Script
Process and clean data
Create a Google Apps Script that calls the GitHub API, processes the JSON response, and formats the security data including vulnerability types, severity levels, affected repositories, and resolution status.
Google Sheets
Import formatted data
Configure the script to populate a Google Sheets spreadsheet with columns for repository name, vulnerability type, severity, detection date, status, and remediation timeline for comprehensive tracking.
Google Sheets
Create visual dashboard
Build charts and pivot tables showing vulnerability trends over time, severity distribution across repositories, and mean time to resolution metrics for executive reporting and security posture tracking.
