Keep device project build caches tidy
Set a recurring GitHub cache cleanup so old or corrupted build data does not linger unnoticed.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Clear repository cache by key
Deletes github actions caches from a repository matching a specific `key` and an optional git `ref`, used to manage storage or clear outdated/corrupted caches; the action succeeds even if no matching caches are found to delete.
Why this helps
Old or corrupted build caches can take up storage and complicate maintenance for a device project.
- Runs cache cleanup on a predictable schedule.
- Targets a specified repository and cache key.
- Can optionally scope cleanup to a Git reference.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Adafruit IO and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, then choose New Automation.
- 3Tell Notis which device project repository and cache key to clear, with an optional Git reference.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real repository and cache key.
Questions about this workflow
Does this inspect Adafruit IO feed data?
No Adafruit IO feed-reading action is listed. This workflow uses a Notis schedule to maintain a specified GitHub repository associated with your device project.
What does the cache cleanup need?
Specify the GitHub repository and cache key. A Git reference is optional, and the action succeeds even if no matching cache exists.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Adafruit IO to GitHub. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

GitHub actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Accept a repository invitation
Accepts a pending repository invitation that has been issued to the authenticated user.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
List repositories starred by the authenticated user
Deprecated: lists repositories starred by the authenticated user, including star creation timestamps; use 'list repositories starred by the authenticated user' instead.
List stargazers
Deprecated: lists users who have starred a repository; use `list stargazers` instead.
Star a repository for the authenticated user
Deprecated: stars a repository for the authenticated user; use `star a repository for the authenticated user` instead.
Add email for auth user
Adds one or more email addresses (which will be initially unverified) to the authenticated user's github account; use this to associate new emails, noting an email verified for another account will error, while an existing email for the current user is accepted.
Add app access restrictions
Replaces github app access restrictions for an existing protected branch; requires a json array of app slugs in the request body, where apps must be installed and have 'contents' write permissions.
Add a repository collaborator
Adds a github user as a repository collaborator, or updates their permission if already a collaborator; `permission` applies to organization-owned repositories (personal ones default to 'push' and ignore this field), and an invitation may be created or permissions updated directly.
Add a repository to an app installation
Adds a repository to a github app installation, granting the app access; requires authenticated user to have admin rights for the repository and access to the installation.
