Turn ClickHouse metric alerts into GitHub issue labels

Let a scheduled ClickHouse check flag issue-linked metrics and add the right existing or new GitHub labels for follow-up.

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

Metric alerts can get lost when you have to switch tools, find the related issue, and label it by hand.

  • Bring metric-driven work into the GitHub issues you already use.
  • Reduce manual searching when an analytics threshold is crossed.
  • Let Notis interpret query results and apply labels to matching issues.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ClickHouse and GitHub in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3In one instruction, provide the query or table, threshold, issue identifiers, and the label to apply when a row matches.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real result row that includes a GitHub repository, issue number, and threshold-matching data.

Questions about this workflow

What does the ClickHouse query need to return?

It needs to return enough information to identify each GitHub repository and issue, along with the metric and threshold decision. Provide the query or relevant schema in your instruction.

Does the label have to exist already?

No. GitHub's add-label action creates labels that do not already exist in the repository.

Can Notis choose the threshold for me?

State the threshold or decision rule in your instruction. Notis can analyze returned data, but it cannot infer a business threshold you have not supplied.

Recurring trigger

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

TriggerScheduled

Accept a repository invitation

Accepts a pending repository invitation that has been issued to the authenticated user.

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

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.

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