Notis

Turn a Bugsnag incident into a clearly labeled GitHub issue

When an incident arrives, Notis can add useful labels to its linked GitHub issue so the next step is easier to spot.

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

Incident details and issue triage live in separate places, making it easy to leave the code issue without a clear status or category.

  • Keep linked issue triage aligned with incident context.
  • Reduce manual label updates after an incident arrives.
  • Make the next code review step easier to find.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Bugsnag and GitHub once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis to create one from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to use incident details to label the linked GitHub issue; specify label rules and require a repository and issue reference.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real incident that identifies a linked GitHub issue.

Questions about this workflow

Does Bugsnag provide a trigger event for this workflow?

No Bugsnag trigger events are listed here. Use a Notis webhook, which starts the automation when an HTTP request arrives.

What if the incident does not identify a GitHub issue?

Ask Notis to stop and report the missing repository or issue reference instead of guessing.

TriggerInstant

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.

ActionInstant

List stargazers

Deprecated: lists users who have starred a repository; use `list stargazers` instead.

ActionInstant

Star a repository for the authenticated user

Deprecated: stars a repository for the authenticated user; use `star a repository for the authenticated user` instead.

ActionInstant

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.

ActionInstant

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.

ActionInstant

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.

ActionInstant

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

Bugsnag and GitHub, or any other combination from 1,000+ integrations.
