Respond faster when GitHub finds a leaked secret

A secret-scanning alert should trigger a clear response plan. Notis turns it into a GitLab issue immediately.

Trigger

New Secret Scanning Alert Detected

Triggers when a new secret scanning alert is detected in a GitHub repository. Monitors open secret scanning alerts and fires an event for each newly detected alert. Supports filtering by secret type (e.g., personal access tokens, AWS keys) and by token validity status (active, inactive, unknown). The payload includes the alert number, secret type, validity status, resolution state, timestamps, URLs, and flags for push protection bypass, public exposure, and multi-repo detection.

Action

Create Project Issue

Tool to create a new issue in a gitlab project. use when you need to report a bug, request a feature, or track a task within a specific project.

Why this helps

Founders may see a secret alert while multitasking and forget the rotation or containment work it requires.

  • Create an immediate response queue
  • Preserve alert and validity context
  • Reduce the risk of missed credential rotation

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and GitLab to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
  • 3In one plain-language instruction, ask Notis to create a GitLab security issue for each new GitHub secret scanning alert with containment reminders and the source link.
  • 4Select the secret alert trigger, choose a reporting channel, and test with one real alert.

Questions about this workflow

Can this distinguish active secrets?

Yes. Ask Notis to call out the secret type and validity status in the GitLab issue.

Does it rotate the credential automatically?

This workflow creates and organizes the GitLab follow-up; credential rotation should remain an explicit, reviewed action.
