Keep transcript follow-ups current with scheduled merge checks
Set a recurring review for pull requests captured in finalized transcripts. Tell Notis which transcripts or references to review and provide repository and pull request details when needed.
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
Pull request follow-ups from earlier calls fall out of view when nobody remembers to check them again.
- Revisit open follow-ups on a schedule.
- See whether referenced pull requests have merged.
- Keep status checks in Notis run reports.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Castingwords and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to review the transcript references you specify, check merge status for each identifiable pull request, and summarize the results.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule trigger, then choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real transcript reference and verify the reported pull request status.
Questions about this workflow
Will it search every transcript in Castingwords automatically?
Tell Notis which transcripts or references to review in your instruction. The schedule starts the automation, but it does not define a transcript selection for you.
What happens when a pull request is not merged?
The merge check reports whether the specified pull request has merged. Use the run report to review the status.
Can it merge or modify pull requests?
No. This workflow checks merge status and reports it; it does not modify pull requests.

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