Add Codacy Context When a Workflow Is Created

New automation deserves a clear quality home from day one.

Trigger

New GitHub Actions Workflow Added

Triggers when a new GitHub Actions workflow is added to a repository. Monitors a repository's GitHub Actions workflows and fires an event for each newly added workflow. The payload includes the workflow's name, file path, state, creation and update timestamps, and URLs for the API, web interface, and status badge.

Action

List Projects

Tool to list all projects accessible to the authenticated user. use when you need a list of repositories after confirming api token validity.

Why this helps

A newly added workflow can increase operational complexity without a clear quality workspace reference.

  • Supports cleaner repository setup
  • Reduces future orientation work
  • Makes quality ownership easier to establish

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Codacy to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it.
  • 3Use this instruction: When a new GitHub Actions workflow is added, list accessible Codacy projects and report the likely project for the repository.
  • 4Pick the new workflow trigger, choose a channel for run reports, and test with one real workflow addition.

Questions about this workflow

Is this for existing workflows too?

It runs when a new workflow is added, which makes it useful during repository setup.

Can the workflow file path be reported?

Yes. Include the path in the plain-language instruction.
