Record protected branch evidence for credentials
Capture a meaningful engineering safeguard as verifiable proof, not a forgotten configuration detail.
Trigger
Branch Changed
Triggers when a GitHub branch changes. Monitors a specific branch for: - New commits pushed (head commit SHA changes) - Protection status toggled (branch becomes protected or unprotected) - Protection settings changed, including: required status checks and their enforcement level, admin enforcement, required pull request reviews (dismiss stale reviews, code owner reviews, approving review count, last push approval), required linear history, force push allowance, deletion allowance, conversation resolution, branch locking, and fork syncing.
Action
Create Evidence Item
Tool to create a new evidence item for a credential. use after confirming credential id.
Why this helps
Important quality practices are hard to document after branch settings have changed.
- Preserve evidence of quality practice
- Avoid manual audit notes
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect the integrations to Notis once.
- 2Create a new automation in the portal.
- 3Write an instruction to attach qualifying branch protection changes as evidence to a credential.
- 4Choose Branch Changed and a report channel.
- 5Test with a non-production branch setting change.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Accredible certificates. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
GitHub triggers
Accredible certificates actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Bulk Create Credentials (V2)
Tool to bulk create credentials. use when batching up to 30 credentials in one call; supports multi-status (207) responses.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Clone Group
Tool to clone an existing group. use after confirming the source group exists and you need a copy with optional overrides.
New Workflow Artifact Created
Triggers when a new workflow artifact is created in a GitHub repository. Monitors for newly created GitHub Actions workflow artifacts. Optionally filters by artifact name to restrict monitoring to specific artifacts.
Create Collection
Tool to create a new collection. use when you need a curated set of groups.
Branch Changed
Triggers when a GitHub branch changes. Monitors a specific branch for: - New commits pushed (head commit SHA changes) - Protection status toggled (branch becomes protected or unprotected) - Protection settings changed, including: required status checks and their enforcement level, admin enforcement, required pull request reviews (dismiss stale reviews, code owner reviews, approving review count, last push approval), required linear history, force push allowance, deletion allowance, conversation resolution, branch locking, and fork syncing.
Create Evidence Item
Tool to create a new evidence item for a credential. use after confirming credential id.
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.
Create Group
Tool to create a new group. use after gathering all group details.
Check Run Status / Conclusion Changed
Triggers when a specific GitHub check run changes its status or conclusion. Monitors a single check run for changes to: status (queued, in_progress, completed, etc.), conclusion (success, failure, neutral, cancelled, skipped, timed_out, action_required), started_at, and completed_at.
Delete Credential
Tool to delete a credential. use after confirming you want to permanently remove an existing credential. executes delete on /credentials/{credential id} endpoint and returns status code.
Check Suite Status / Conclusion Changed
Triggers when a GitHub check suite changes its status or conclusion for a given ref. Monitors all check suites associated with a git reference (branch, tag, or commit SHA) for changes to status (queued, in_progress, completed, etc.) and conclusion (success, failure, neutral, cancelled, skipped, timed_out, action_required, startup_failure, stale). Optionally filters by GitHub App ID.
Delete Group
Tool to delete a group. use after confirming no credentials remain and when you need to permanently remove the group.
New Code Scanning Alert Created
Triggers when a new code scanning alert is created in a repository. Fires an event for each newly created code scanning alert detected in the configured repository. Alerts can be filtered by Git reference, scanning tool, state, and severity. The payload includes the alert number, rule details, tool information, state, severity, and the location of the most recent instance.
Delete Reference
Tool to delete a specific reference by id. use after confirming both credential id and reference id. example: "delete reference 1234 from credential 'abc123'."
