Check the launch pull request before sharing Bitly links
Get a simple merge-status check at the time you choose, so you can review launch readiness before pushing a Bitly link.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Check if pull request merged
Checks if a specified github pull request has been merged, indicated by a 204 http status (merged) or 404 (not merged/found).
Why this helps
A link can be ready to share while its related code change is still waiting on a merge, leaving you to check GitHub manually at the last minute.
- Run a merge-status check on a predictable schedule.
- Receive the result without reopening GitHub to check manually.
- Keep the Bitly launch context with the automation prompt.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Bitly and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Tell Notis in one instruction which GitHub repository and pull request to check and how to report its merge status for your Bitly launch.
- 4Choose a Notis schedule trigger and set the cadence that fits the launch.
- 5Choose where run reports go, then test with one real pull request.
Questions about this workflow
Will Notis discover the pull request from Bitly automatically?
No. Bitly has no trigger events listed here, and this scheduled workflow needs the repository and pull request details in the automation instruction.
What does the GitHub action check?
It checks whether a specified pull request has merged. The result is based on GitHub's merge status response.
Can this workflow publish or shorten a Bitly link?
No. Its GitHub action only checks pull request merge status. It can report the result alongside launch context you provide.

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