Turn PDF security findings into labeled GitHub issues
Make security findings easier to spot in the issue queue by labeling their referenced GitHub issues.
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
Security findings recorded in PDFs can be hard to prioritize when the related GitHub issues look like routine work.
- Bring document findings into the GitHub issue queue.
- Apply a label based on the finding described in the report.
- Make security related work easier to scan.
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 identify the referenced GitHub issue in each security findings request and add the appropriate label that already exists in the repository.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real findings report and a referenced issue.
Questions about this workflow
Can GitHub create the label if it is missing?
Yes. This GitHub action creates labels that do not already exist, using the label name Notis supplies.
Does the workflow perform a security review?
It can summarize the supplied findings and act on the referenced issue. It should not claim to verify vulnerabilities beyond the information provided.

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.
