Pair new issue comments with cloud context

A new comment can add the detail needed to move an issue forward. Retrieve a current droplet inventory and keep it in the same follow-up report.

Trigger

New GitHub Issue Comment

Triggers when a new comment is added to a specific GitHub issue. Only genuinely new comments are emitted; edits to existing comments do not produce duplicate events. The payload includes the comment ID, text body, author details, timestamps, and direct links to the comment on GitHub.

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

New issue discussion can be easy to miss when the conversation and cloud context are spread across tools.

  • Include current cloud inventory with new discussion
  • Keep comment details and context together
  • Make issue follow-up easier to pick up

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 new comment is added to a monitored issue and summarize it with the comment.
  • 3Pick GitHub's New GitHub Issue Comment trigger.
  • 4Choose where run reports go, then test with one real comment.

Questions about this workflow

Will edits to a comment trigger this workflow?

No. The event is for genuinely new comments; edits to existing comments are excluded.

Does this post a reply to GitHub?

No. It retrieves cloud inventory and reports on the comment; it does not post a reply.
