Find Kibana alerts after a GitHub Actions failure
Skip the blank-page moment after CI fails and go straight to the signals that may explain it.
Trigger
GitHub Workflow Run State Changed
Triggers when a GitHub Actions workflow run's status or conclusion changes. Monitors a single workflow run and fires an event whenever it transitions between states (e.g., queued to in_progress, or in_progress to completed) or when its conclusion is set (e.g., success, failure, cancelled).
Action
Find Kibana Alerts
Tool to find and/or aggregate detection alerts in kibana. use this to retrieve a list of alerts, optionally filtering them with a query and performing aggregations.
Why this helps
Investigating failed automation often starts with repetitive, unfocused log hunting.
- Shortens investigation startup
- Brings relevant signals together
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect both integrations in Notis.
- 2Create a new portal automation.
- 3Tell Notis to search Kibana alerts for relevant signals whenever a GitHub workflow run fails.
- 4Pick the workflow run state trigger and a reporting channel.
- 5Cause a controlled workflow failure and check the run report.
