Check suspicious IPs mentioned in new GitHub issues
Spot reported IPs in issue reports without leaving your GitHub triage flow.
Trigger
New Issue Created
Triggers when a new issue is created in a GitHub repository. Pull requests are automatically excluded -- only true issues produce events. Results can be filtered by labels, assignee, creator, and mentioned user. The payload includes the issue number, title, body, state, labels, assignees, comment count, creator details, timestamps, and direct links to the issue on GitHub.
Action
Check IP Reputation
Tool to check the reputation of an ip address. use when you need to determine if an ip address has been reported for abusive activity within a specified look-back period. example: checkip(ipaddress='8.8.8.8', maxageindays=90).
Why this helps
An IP address buried in an issue can be easy to miss when you are already juggling triage.
- Check IP addresses included in new issue text.
- See reputation results alongside the automation run report.
- Reduce manual copy and paste during issue triage.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Abuselpdb once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Notis Automations or tell Notis in plain language.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to find IP addresses in each new issue and check their reputation with Abuselpdb.
- 4Pick the New Issue Created trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real issue that includes an IP address.
