Trigger
New Secret Scanning Alert Detected
Triggers when a new secret scanning alert is detected in a repository.
Action
Create Announcement
Create an announcement in a course.
Why this helps
A leaked credential needs quick attention, but urgent GitHub alerts compete with everything else on a founder's plate.
- Create immediate visibility for potentially exposed credentials.
- Include the secret type, validity status, and affected repository.
- Keep the response anchored to the original GitHub alert.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Google Classroom to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create a new automation in the portal, or describe the workflow to Notis conversationally.
- 3Use one instruction: Announce every new GitHub secret scanning alert in the selected Google Classroom course with its type, validity, repository, urgency, and link.
- 4Select the secret scanning alert trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one real alert in a controlled repository.
Questions about this workflow
Can this distinguish active and inactive secrets?
Yes. Ask Notis to include the alert validity status and adjust the wording for active secrets.
Is this suitable for a private engineering course?
Yes, provided the selected Classroom course is limited to the people who should see security information.
