Check traffic pages after a GitHub release
Keep launch follow-through from becoming another open loop.
Trigger
GitHub Release State Changed
Triggers when a specific GitHub release (identified by tag name) changes. Monitors the release title, body/notes, draft flag, prerelease flag, published timestamp, target branch/commit, and the set of attached assets. The payload includes the full current release details, a list of which fields changed, and the previous values for comparison.
Action
Pages by traffic overview
Retrieves a list of pages from a specified website, ordered by their estimated organic search traffic. this endpoint is part of the ahrefs site explorer tool and provides valuable insights into which pages on a website are performing well in terms of attracting organic search visitors. it's useful for identifying top-performing content, understanding traffic distribution across a site, and prioritizing optimization efforts. the endpoint returns data such as page urls, estimated traffic, and other relevant metrics. it's important to note that the traffic data is an estimation based on ahrefs' algorithms and may not exactly match actual analytics data. this tool is particularly useful for seo professionals, content strategists, and website owners looking to analyze and improve their site's organic search performance.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Ahrefs. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
GitHub triggers
Ahrefs actions
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.
Backlinks stats retrieval
Retrieves comprehensive backlink statistics for a specified website or url using ahrefs' site explorer tool. this endpoint provides crucial data for seo analysis, including the total number of backlinks, referring domains, and potentially the domain rating (dr). it's essential for understanding a site's link profile, assessing its seo performance, and conducting competitive analysis. the tool is particularly useful when users need detailed insights into a website's backlink structure or when comparing the backlink profiles of multiple domains. note that the data returned is based on ahrefs' extensive web crawl and may not include very recent backlinks.
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.
Batch Url Analysis
Performs a batch analysis on multiple urls or domains using ahrefs' powerful seo metrics. this endpoint allows users to retrieve key seo data for up to 100 targets simultaneously, streamlining the process of analyzing multiple websites or pages. it's particularly useful for comparing competitors, analyzing site sections, or processing large sets of urls efficiently. the endpoint offers customization options for selecting specific metrics, filtering by country, and choosing the calculation mode for volume-based metrics. while it provides comprehensive data, users should be aware of the 100-target limit per request and ensure they have sufficient api quota for large-scale analyses.
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.
Domain rating for site explorer
Retrieves the domain rating (dr) for a specified domain. domain rating is an ahrefs metric that measures the strength and authority of a website's backlink profile on a logarithmic scale from 0 to 100. this endpoint should be used when you need to quickly assess the overall seo strength of a domain based on its backlink profile. it's particularly useful for competitive analysis, link building research, and evaluating potential partnership opportunities. the tool provides a single, easy-to-understand metric but does not offer detailed information about the backlinks themselves or other seo factors. for more comprehensive backlink analysis, consider using other ahrefs endpoints that provide more detailed backlink data.
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.
Domain rating history
Retrieves the historical domain rating (dr) data for a specified domain over time. this endpoint is part of ahrefs' site explorer tool and provides insights into how a domain's authority has changed. it's useful for tracking the impact of seo efforts, analyzing competitors, or understanding long-term trends in domain strength. the tool returns a time series of domain rating values, allowing users to visualize changes in a domain's perceived authority according to ahrefs' metrics. it should be used when analyzing the historical performance of a domain in terms of its overall seo strength and backlink profile quality. note that this endpoint focuses solely on domain rating and does not provide other metrics like backlink counts or organic traffic data.
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.
Explore keywords overview
Retrieves a comprehensive overview of keyword data from ahrefs' keywords explorer tool. this endpoint provides essential insights for seo professionals and content strategists, offering a summary of key metrics such as search volume, keyword difficulty, and potential traffic. it's ideal for users looking to get a quick snapshot of keyword performance and opportunities without diving into specific keyword details. the overview likely includes aggregate data and trends, helping users to make informed decisions about their keyword strategy. while it offers a broad perspective, it may not provide in-depth analysis of individual keywords. use this endpoint when you need a high-level view of your keyword landscape or to identify general trends in your niche.
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.

New Repository Collaborator Added
Triggers when a new collaborator is added to a GitHub repository. Monitors the full list of collaborators on a repository and fires an event for each newly added collaborator. The payload includes the collaborator's GitHub username, account ID, profile URL, avatar URL, permission flags (pull, triage, push, maintain, admin), and assigned role name.
Explore linked domains of a site
Retrieves a list of external domains that the specified target website or url links to, using ahrefs' site explorer functionality. this endpoint is crucial for analyzing a website's external linking structure, which can provide insights into its content strategy, partnerships, and overall seo approach. it's particularly useful for competitive analysis, link building strategies, and identifying potential opportunities or risks in a website's outbound link profile. the endpoint returns detailed information about each linked domain, including the number of links pointing to it from the target site.
