Find GitHub issues waiting on design work
A recurring check can surface design-related issues for a clearer review queue, using the Canva context you make available.
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
Design-dependent issues can linger because nobody has time to compare the design queue with GitHub.
- Create a more visible design review queue
- Reduce repeated manual backlog scans
- Focus attention on issues needing a next step
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Canva and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
- 2In Automations, choose New Automation and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to review available Canva design context and related GitHub issues, then label issues that appear to be awaiting design follow-up.
- 4Choose the recurring schedule trigger and where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real example and confirm the labels reflect information actually available.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis identify stale Canva designs automatically?
Only if the available Canva context indicates age or status. If that data is unavailable, supply the relevant list or define a different review signal.
Can this workflow close or resolve issues?
No. Its selected action adds labels to issues, which can help triage but does not close them.

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