Document important GitHub branch changes

Keep a readable record of branch updates and protection changes for smoother handoffs.

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 PDF Asynchronously

Tool to queue asynchronous PDF generation via webhook. Use when you need to generate a PDF in the background and receive the result via a webhook.

Why this helps

Branch activity and protection setting changes can be easy to miss when you are focused on other work.

  • Record detected branch changes in a shareable document.
  • Capture available commit and protection change details.
  • Make branch handoffs easier to follow.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Craftmypdf once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation in Notis and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to create a PDF record for each detected change to the monitored branch using your chosen template.
  • 4Choose the branch changed trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real branch change and review what details the event supplies.

Questions about this workflow

What kinds of changes can trigger this?

The event monitors new commits, protection status changes, and protection setting changes such as required status checks.

Can the PDF include the full commit diff?

The event reports branch changes and head commit information, but does not promise the full diff. Ask Notis to use the details available in the event.
