Keep issue changes and cloud context together
When issue state, ownership, labels, or other tracked properties change, retrieve the droplet list to keep follow-up grounded in current infrastructure.
Trigger
Issue State / Properties Changed
Triggers when a specific GitHub issue changes any of its tracked properties. Monitored properties: state (open/closed), state_reason, title, body, assignees, labels, milestone, lock status, active_lock_reason, comment count, and closed_at timestamp. When a change is detected, the payload includes the full current issue details, the list of changed field names, and their previous values.
Action
List All Droplets
Tool to list all droplets in your account. use when you need an overview of droplets, optionally filtered by tag. use after authentication.
Why this helps
An issue update can create another round of manual context gathering across GitHub and cloud tools.
- Add cloud context to issue change reports
- Keep updates easier to review
- Reduce manual follow-up lookup
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and DigitalOcean once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation instructing Notis to retrieve droplet inventory when a monitored issue changes and summarize the changed properties.
- 3Pick GitHub's Issue State / Properties Changed trigger.
- 4Choose where run reports go, then test with one real issue change.
Questions about this workflow
Will every issue update trigger the workflow?
The listed trigger monitors a specific issue's tracked properties. Configure the monitored issue when selecting the trigger.
Does it update the issue or cloud resources?
No. It retrieves droplets and summarizes the issue change.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Digital ocean. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
GitHub triggers
Digital ocean actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Create Custom Image
Tool to create a new custom image by providing a url to a linux vm image. use when you need to import a vm image into digitalocean after specifying name, url, distribution, and region.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Create Database Cluster
Tool to create a new managed database cluster. use when you need to provision a database cluster with name, engine, version, region, size, and number of nodes.
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.
Create New Block Storage Volume
Tool to create a new block storage volume. use when you need to provision persistent block storage after confirming the target region supports volumes. example: "create a 100 gib ext4 backup volume named 'db-backup' in nyc1."
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.
Create New Domain
Tool to create a new domain. use when you have the domain name and optionally an ip address to assign an a record.
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.
Create Domain Record
Tool to create a new dns record for a domain. use after confirming domain exists and record specifics.
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.
Create New Droplet
Tool to create a new droplet. use when you need to provision a vm with name, region, size, and image.
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.
Create New Firewall
Tool to create a new firewall. use when you need to define a firewall name and custom rules (requires at least one inbound and one outbound rule).
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.
Create New Kubernetes Cluster
Tool to create a new kubernetes cluster. use when you have finalized the cluster name, region, version, and at least one node pool. confirm region supports kubernetes clusters before use.
