Track GitHub Actions health in Databox

Turn every workflow run into a Databox record, so build health stays visible alongside your business metrics.

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

Push Data to Dataset (V1)

Tool to push data points to a Databox dataset using the v1 API. Use when you need to ingest data records into a specific dataset by providing the dataset ID and an array of records matching the dataset schema.

Why this helps

CI results are scattered across repositories, making it hard to spot reliability trends without opening GitHub repeatedly.

  • Review workflow conclusions in one Databox dashboard.
  • Reduce manual copying of run details into reporting datasets.
  • Spot changes in CI reliability over time.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Databox once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation by telling Notis to send each workflow run's status, conclusion, branch, and timing details to a Databox dataset.
  • 3Pick the GitHub Workflow Run State Changed trigger for the repository and run to monitor.
  • 4Choose where Notis should send run reports, then test with one real completed workflow run.

Questions about this workflow

Which GitHub event starts this automation?

It starts when a monitored GitHub Actions workflow run changes status or receives a conclusion.

What should the Databox dataset contain?

Create a dataset with keys and fields suitable for the run details you want to analyze. Notis can only push records supported by that dataset schema.

Does this reveal historical workflow data?

No. It sends data for changes observed after the automation is enabled; historical runs require a separate import.

Supported Triggers and Actions

Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Databox. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

GitHub triggers

Databox actions

Recurring trigger

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

TriggerScheduled

Create Dataset

Tool to create a new dataset in Databox data source. Use when you need to initialize a dataset with a title, data source ID, and primary keys for unique record identification.

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

TriggerInstant

Create Data Source

Tool to create a new data source in Databox. Use when you need to create a logical container for datasets within a Databox account. Requires accountId, title, and timezone parameters.

ActionInstant

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.

TriggerPolling

Delete Dataset

Tool to delete a dataset by ID in Databox. Use when you need to permanently remove a dataset. This operation is irreversible.

ActionInstant

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.

TriggerPolling

Delete Data Source

Tool to delete a data source by ID in Databox. Use when you need to permanently remove a data source. This operation is irreversible and will delete all associated datasets.

ActionInstant

New Branch Created

Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.

TriggerPolling

Get Dataset Ingestion Status

Tool to check the status of a specific data ingestion for a dataset. Use when you need to verify whether a data ingestion was successful by providing the dataset ID and ingestion ID returned from the initial POST request.

ActionInstant

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.

TriggerPolling

List Accounts

Tool to retrieve all Databox accounts accessible to the authenticated user. Use to identify account IDs required for subsequent API operations like data source creation.

ActionInstant

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.

TriggerPolling

Push Data to Dataset (V1)

Tool to push data points to a Databox dataset using the v1 API. Use when you need to ingest data records into a specific dataset by providing the dataset ID and an array of records matching the dataset schema.

ActionInstant

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.
