Check application reference data when a pull request opens
When a pull request opens, make DNSFilter's application list available to the reviewer as reference for application related changes.
Trigger
New Pull Request Created
Triggers when a new pull request is created in GitHub, matching the optional configured filters. Emits an event for each newly created pull request. Supports filtering by repository, owner/organisation, author, assignee, label, state, base branch, head branch, and draft status.
Action
List Applications
Tool to list applications with basic information. use when you need to retrieve all applications for your dnsfilter organization.
Why this helps
A reviewer may need to pause code review to find application context in another product, breaking focus at the start of the task.
- Gather application reference information at PR creation.
- Make relevant app context easier to access during review.
- Avoid automatic changes to application configuration.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and DNSFilter once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for PR application review.
- 3Ask Notis to retrieve DNSFilter applications when a new pull request is created and provide them as reference.
- 4Pick the new pull request created trigger and choose a report channel.
- 5Test with one real pull request.
Questions about this workflow
Does this review the code and identify changed applications?
No. The action retrieves DNSFilter's application list. It does not compare the list with the code.
Can the pull request trigger be narrowed?
The trigger supports optional filters such as repository, author, labels, and branches. In Notis, you pick the trigger rather than build field mappings.
