Issues filtered by creator/assignee

[alper]

I'd like to be able to filter issues not on label but on creator/assignee.

This is for a team based project board in a larger monorepo context. We are not interested in having all PRs/issues on our board.

I forked it and made this work as a creators filter. Assignee could also be added if there's interest.

My repo: https://github.com/alper/add-to-project

For the issue author (creator) portion of your use case, couldn't this be solved much more easily by limiting the workflow job/step to specific actors or triggering_actors? See github context in the docs.

That's interesting but getting this thing to run properly in Github was a nightmare to begin with what with different bot users and rights and everything intersecting. I'll pick this up if I ever need to but for now what I cobbled together is working fine (with some token).

Oh yeah sure, use whatever works best for you, I was more responding to the initial request to have a filter option for issuers.

If I understood the problem correctly, it should be solvabe with an if condition targeting certain actors, much like one would exclude bots from certain workflows (see e.g. the section on Troubleshooting Dependabot in the docs).
