Notis

Keep changing issues connected to the right project

As an issue evolves, Notis refreshes the project context that helps you decide what happens next.

Trigger

Issue State / Properties Changed

Triggers when a specific GitHub issue changes any of its tracked properties. Monitored properties: state (open/closed), state_reason, title, body, assignees, labels, milestone, lock status, active_lock_reason, comment count, and closed_at timestamp. When a change is detected, the payload includes the full current issue details, the list of changed field names, and their previous values.

Action

List Projects

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

Why this helps

Issue changes can alter scope or ownership without updating the founder’s mental billing picture.

  • Notice when scope changes deserve project review
  • Reduce mental bookkeeping across issue updates
  • Keep ownership and billing context aligned

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 GitHub issue changes state, assignment, labels, milestone, title, or body, list FreshBooks projects and explain whether the change warrants a project review.”
  • 4Choose the issue-properties trigger, select a report channel, and test with one meaningful issue update.

Questions about this workflow

Which issue changes matter most?

Ask Notis to focus reports on changes that suggest scope, ownership, or delivery impact.

Will every edit trigger a report?

The monitored trigger detects tracked property changes; use filters and prompt guidance to keep reports useful.
