Keep fast-moving model work traceable

Additional commits often contain the fix that matters. Let Notis keep the Databricks model version context current as the pull request evolves.

Trigger

New Commit Added to Pull Request

Triggers when a new commit is pushed to a specific pull request. Monitors all commits on the specified pull request and emits an event for each newly added commit. This covers force-pushes and additional commits pushed to the PR's head branch.

Action

Update Model Version

Tool to update a Unity Catalog model version. Use when you need to modify the comment of a specific model version. Currently only the comment field can be updated. The caller must be a metastore admin or owner of the parent registered model with appropriate catalog and schema privileges.

Why this helps

Repeated updates are easy to skip, especially when a founder is switching between implementation, review, and customer work.

  • Maintains a lightweight change trail.
  • Reduces repetitive metadata edits.
  • Makes later review faster and clearer.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Databricks once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations or tell Notis what to do.
  • 3Use one instruction: when a new commit is added to the specified pull request, update the related Databricks model version comment with the commit summary and link.
  • 4Pick the new pull request commit trigger, choose the reporting channel, and test with one real commit.

Questions about this workflow

Will every commit create a new model version?

No. This workflow updates the existing model version comment using the Databricks action.

Can I use it only for a release branch?

Specify the pull request or branch context in the instruction and trigger settings.
