Create a saved reply

Follow the numbered UI path from Creating a saved reply:

  1. In the upper-right corner of any page on GitHub, click your profile picture, then click Settings.
  2. In the sidebar, under Code, planning, and automation, click Saved replies.
  3. Under Add a saved reply, add a title for your saved reply.
  4. In the Write field, add the content you want to reuse. Markdown works here: see Basic writing and formatting syntax.
  5. Click Preview to review the rendered reply.
  6. Click Add saved reply.

You should see the new title listed under Saved replies. Use it from an issue or pull request comment box next (see Using saved replies).
