Track PDF compliance findings in GitHub
Connect compliance documentation to issue tracking with a label on the referenced GitHub issue.
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
Compliance findings described in PDFs are harder to follow when their related engineering work is not easy to identify.
- Make compliance related issues easier to scan.
- Retain a link between the finding and its issue.
- Reduce manual issue labeling.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect CloudPDF and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis to find the GitHub issue referenced by each compliance request and add the compliance label.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real finding and its issue.
Questions about this workflow
Does this certify compliance?
No. It labels the issue based on the report context. It does not validate compliance or interpret requirements beyond information provided.
What if the report does not include an issue reference?
Have Notis report the missing reference so someone can connect the finding to the right issue.

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.
