Make retention regressions visible in GitHub
Connect a change in returning-user behavior to the GitHub issue that needs attention.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
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
Retention changes are easy to notice in a report and easy to lose among unrelated engineering work.
- Bring meaningful retention concerns into issue triage.
- Make related product work easier to scan in GitHub.
- Create a repeatable review without a separate manual handoff.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Amplitude and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to review the specified retention data and add an existing label to the GitHub issue you identify as related to a material regression.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real retention result and the related issue.
Questions about this workflow
Does the workflow decide what counts as a regression?
State the comparison or threshold in your instruction. If the required baseline is not available in the returned data, supply it in the instruction.
Will Notis make a new label?
The listed GitHub action adds labels to an issue, and labels that do not already exist are created by GitHub.
Can it work without an issue reference?
It needs enough context to identify the related issue. Provide the reference or matching guidance, and check the run report if the relationship is unclear.

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

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.
Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.
Amplitude and GitHub, or any other combination from 1,000+ integrations.
