Notis

Make every GitHub release easier to share

A new tag marks a release moment. Have Notis create a short Dub link to the matching GitHub release page so it is ready to share.

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

Upsert a Link

Tool to create or update a short link in Dub. Use when you need to create a new short link or update an existing one. If the link already exists (matching domain and key), it will be updated; otherwise, a new link will be created.

Why this helps

Finding and shortening release links by hand adds one more task to shipping.

  • Share a consistent short URL for each release.
  • Reduce manual steps between tagging and announcing.
  • Keep the release destination tied to its GitHub source.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Dub once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to create a Dub short link to the release page for each new GitHub tag.
  • 4Pick the New GitHub Release Asset Added trigger for the release you want to monitor.
  • 5Choose where run reports go, then test with one real release asset event.

Questions about this workflow

What destination should the short link use?

Ask Notis to use the GitHub release page URL associated with the event. If the event does not provide the exact page URL, provide the desired destination in your instruction.

Does this publish an announcement?

No. It creates or updates a short link in Dub. You can share the resulting link separately.
