Make code scanning alerts actionable in Knack
Give security findings a clear place for triage and follow-through.
Trigger
New Code Scanning Alert Created

Why this helps
Security alerts can remain isolated in engineering tooling while other business priorities take over.
- Makes findings visible outside GitHub
- Supports severity-based triage
- Creates an auditable follow-up trail
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Knack to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it conversationally.
- 3Tell Notis to create a Knack security queue record for each new GitHub code scanning alert, including severity, rule, tool, location, and link.
- 4Pick New Code Scanning Alert Created and choose a report channel.
- 5Test with one real alert.
