Check Apilio states when a GitHub workflow fails

Turn a disruptive CI failure into one focused status check instead of a hunt across dashboards.

Trigger

GitHub Workflow Run State Changed

Triggers when a GitHub Actions workflow run's status or conclusion changes. Monitors a single workflow run and fires an event whenever it transitions between states (e.g., queued to in_progress, or in_progress to completed) or when its conclusion is set (e.g., success, failure, cancelled).

Action

Get Boolean Variables

Tool to fetch all boolean variables. use when you need the full list of boolean variables and their current states.

Why this helps

A failed build can pull attention into several tools before you know whether your usual environment is ready.

  • Keeps incident context in one run report
  • Makes a quick environment check repeatable

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Apilio to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create a new automation and name it for CI failure checks.
  • 3Write one prompt asking Notis to retrieve Apilio boolean states when the workflow fails.
  • 4Select the GitHub workflow-run state-change trigger and a channel for reports.
  • 5Test it with one real failed workflow run.
