Make incoming weather alerts actionable in GitHub

When a weather alert reaches Notis, add a label to the issues it affects so they stand out in the team's workflow.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Add labels to an issue

Adds labels (provided in the request body) to a repository issue; labels that do not already exist are created.

Why this helps

Important weather alerts can be separated from the GitHub issues that need a response.

  • Surface issues connected to an incoming alert
  • Reduce manual cross-checking
  • Keep alert handling consistent with your criteria

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ambient weather and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis how to identify the affected issues and which existing or new label to add when an alert meets your criteria.
  • 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real alert request and review the issue labels.

Questions about this workflow

Does Ambient weather provide the webhook trigger?

No Ambient weather trigger events are listed. This uses a Notis webhook, started by an HTTP request containing the alert context.

Can the action create the label if needed?

Yes. The GitHub action adds labels to an issue, and labels that do not already exist are created.

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.

ActionInstant

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.
