Keep package follow-up work under its parent issue
When a Cloudsmith event includes a follow-up issue and its parent issue, have Notis connect them in GitHub as a sub-issue relationship.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Add sub-issue to an issue
Adds a sub-issue to a parent issue; the sub-issues feature must be enabled.
Why this helps
Package follow-up can become scattered across unrelated issues, making the larger task harder to track.
- Keep detailed package work grouped under a parent issue.
- Make the relationship between release context and planned work easier to follow.
- Reduce manual issue organization.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Cloudsmith and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation named for package follow-up linking.
- 3In one instruction, tell Notis to use the supplied parent and sub-issue references to establish the relationship, and to report missing references.
- 4Choose the Notis webhook trigger and configure Cloudsmith to send relevant event data to the webhook.
- 5Choose a run-report channel, then test with one real example containing valid parent and sub-issue references.
Questions about this workflow
Does this create a new issue?
No. The listed GitHub action links an existing issue as a sub-issue of an existing parent issue.
What must the webhook provide?
It must provide enough context to identify both GitHub issues, such as their repository and issue references. The GitHub sub-issues feature must also be enabled.
