Notis

Keep active coding connected to project context

Commits happen constantly. Notis turns selected commit activity into a simple project-review cue.

Trigger

Commit Event

Triggered when a new commit is pushed to a repository.

Action

List Projects

Tool to list all projects for a business. use after confirming the business id.

Why this helps

Small pieces of work accumulate without a clear reminder to connect them to a FreshBooks project.

  • Reduce end-of-week billing reconstruction
  • Create a repeatable project-context habit
  • Keep delivery activity visible without extra tracking

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and FreshBooks to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it.
  • 3Use this instruction: “When a commit is pushed to my GitHub repository, list my FreshBooks projects and tell me whether this commit deserves a project review.”
  • 4Select the commit trigger, choose a run-report channel, and test with one representative commit.

Questions about this workflow

Should this run for every repository?

It is usually best for client repositories or selected branches where commit activity has billing relevance.

Can it summarize multiple commits?

Use a scheduled or filtered setup if individual commit reports would be too frequent.
