Promote useful release assets automatically
When the download is ready, prepare the message that helps people use it.
Trigger
New GitHub Release Asset Added
Triggers when a new asset is added to a specific GitHub release. Monitors a single release (identified by release ID) for newly uploaded assets such as binaries, archives, or checksum files. One event is emitted per new asset, containing full asset metadata.
Action
Create Media Container
Create a draft media container for photos/videos/reels before publishing.
Why this helps
New downloads and binaries can be added after the main release announcement and never get their own explanation.
- Keeps secondary launch moments visible
- Explains why an asset matters
- Reduces release monitoring work
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Instagram to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it.
- 3Describe the outcome: When a new customer-facing asset is added to a GitHub release, create an Instagram draft explaining what it is and who should download it.
- 4Select the new release asset trigger, choose the run-report channel, and test with one asset.
Questions about this workflow
Can internal build artifacts be ignored?
Yes. Tell Notis to act only on assets intended for customers or public users.
Can the draft include a download link?
Yes. Ask Notis to include the public release URL.
