Turn GitHub deployments into Honeybadger deployment records
Ship with a reliable change trail, automatically.
Trigger
New Deployment Status Created
Triggers when a new deployment status is created for a specific deployment. Fires an event for each newly created deployment status on the monitored deployment. Deployment statuses represent state transitions such as pending, in_progress, success, failure, error, inactive, and queued. The payload includes the status state, creator, environment, description, timestamps, and relevant URLs.
Action
Report Deployment
Tool to report a new deployment to Honeybadger. Use after a successful release to notify Honeybadger of the deployment.
Why this helps
Deployment context is easy to lose when release work is interrupted by support, sales, or the next urgent task.
- Creates a consistent deployment trail in Honeybadger
- Makes incident timelines easier to understand
- Removes repetitive post-release admin
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Honeybadger to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it in plain language.
- 3Use this instruction: “When GitHub creates a deployment status, report the deployment to Honeybadger with the repository, commit, environment, status, and link.”
- 4Pick the GitHub deployment-status trigger, choose a channel for run reports, and test with one real deployment.
Questions about this workflow
What does Honeybadger receive?
Notis sends the deployment context available from GitHub, including the repository, commit, environment, status, and relevant link.
Can this cover production releases?
Yes. Configure the GitHub trigger for the deployment environment you want to track.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Honeybadger. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
GitHub triggers
Honeybadger actions
New Workflow Artifact Created
Triggers when a new workflow artifact is created in a GitHub repository. Monitors for newly created GitHub Actions workflow artifacts. Optionally filters by artifact name to restrict monitoring to specific artifacts.
Report Check-In
Tool to report a check-in (ping) to Honeybadger. Use when monitoring scheduled tasks to signal they're running on time.
Branch Changed
Triggers when a GitHub branch changes. Monitors a specific branch for: - New commits pushed (head commit SHA changes) - Protection status toggled (branch becomes protected or unprotected) - Protection settings changed, including: required status checks and their enforcement level, admin enforcement, required pull request reviews (dismiss stale reviews, code owner reviews, approving review count, last push approval), required linear history, force push allowance, deletion allowance, conversation resolution, branch locking, and fork syncing.
Report Deployment
Tool to report a new deployment to Honeybadger. Use after a successful release to notify Honeybadger of the deployment.
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.
Report Event
Tool to send custom events to Honeybadger Insights. Use when recording structured NDJSON telemetry.
Check Run Status / Conclusion Changed
Triggers when a specific GitHub check run changes its status or conclusion. Monitors a single check run for changes to: status (queued, in_progress, completed, etc.), conclusion (success, failure, neutral, cancelled, skipped, timed_out, action_required), started_at, and completed_at.
Report Exception
Tool to report an exception notice to Honeybadger. Use when sending error details (stack trace, context) for diagnostics.
Check Suite Status / Conclusion Changed
Triggers when a GitHub check suite changes its status or conclusion for a given ref. Monitors all check suites associated with a git reference (branch, tag, or commit SHA) for changes to status (queued, in_progress, completed, etc.) and conclusion (success, failure, neutral, cancelled, skipped, timed_out, action_required, startup_failure, stale). Optionally filters by GitHub App ID.
Upload File to S3
Tool to upload a local file to a managed S3 bucket. Use when preparing files for source-map uploads.
New Code Scanning Alert Created
Triggers when a new code scanning alert is created in a repository. Fires an event for each newly created code scanning alert detected in the configured repository. Alerts can be filtered by Git reference, scanning tool, state, and severity. The payload includes the alert number, rule details, tool information, state, severity, and the location of the most recent instance.
Upload Source Map
Tool to upload JavaScript source maps for error de-minification. Use after deploying assets to Honeybadger to attach source maps.
New Repository Collaborator Added
Triggers when a new collaborator is added to a GitHub repository. Monitors the full list of collaborators on a repository and fires an event for each newly added collaborator. The payload includes the collaborator's GitHub username, account ID, profile URL, avatar URL, permission flags (pull, triage, push, maintain, admin), and assigned role name.
