Mark a product milestone with a postcard

A new product tag can kick off a tangible thank-you or launch postcard, using the design and recipients you provide to Notis.

Trigger

New Repository Tag Created

Triggers when a new tag is created in a GitHub repository. Monitors the repository's tags and fires an event for each newly created tag. The payload includes the tag name, the commit SHA and URL it points to, and archive download URLs.

Action

Send Postcard

Tool to send a postcard via u.s. mail with specified recipient, sender, and front/back images. use after confirming recipient addresses and design urls. example: send postcard(to name='john doe', ..., front image='https://...', back image='https://...')

Why this helps

Small launch moments are easy to celebrate in the repository and forget to share with customers or partners.

  • Connect a release milestone to a real-world thank-you.
  • Reuse an approved postcard design.
  • Keep recipient details and the mailing instruction together.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Docupost once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name the milestone postcard.
  • 3Tell Notis in one instruction which tag signifies the milestone, who should receive the postcard, and provide the front and back image URLs.
  • 4Pick the GitHub New Repository Tag Created trigger, then choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real example and verify recipient addresses and design URLs before sending.

Questions about this workflow

Does the GitHub tag provide postcard images?

No. Provide the front and back image URLs for the approved postcard design.

Can a tag automatically determine postcard recipients?

Only if your instruction provides a recipient list or points to a trusted source that Notis can access. The event itself does not contain mailing addresses.

Can this send a postcard for every tag?

Describe which tag names represent a milestone in your instruction so Notis can decide whether an event qualifies.
