Add FreeAgent notes for failed GitHub workflows
Capture a delivery risk early so it does not become an unexplained surprise later.
Trigger
GitHub Workflow Run State Changed
Triggers when a GitHub Actions workflow run's status or conclusion changes. Monitors a single workflow run and fires an event whenever it transitions between states (e.g., queued to in_progress, or in_progress to completed) or when its conclusion is set (e.g., success, failure, cancelled).
Action
Create Note
Tool to create a note for a contact or project in FreeAgent. Use when you need to add documentation, reminders, or context to contacts or projects.
Why this helps

- Creates an incident trail
- Supports clearer client conversations

- 2Create a plain-language automation in the portal or via Notis.
- 3Describe adding a project note when a relevant workflow fails.
- 4Choose the workflow-run state trigger, select a report channel, and test with a failed test run.
