Check Kibana indices after GitHub workflow job changes
Make data availability an explicit check when a data-dependent job changes state.
Trigger
Workflow Job State Changed
Triggers when the status, conclusion, timestamps, runner assignment, or step details of a specific GitHub Actions workflow job change between polls. The payload includes the full current job state, a list of which fields changed, and the previous status/conclusion values for easy comparison.
Action
Get Index Management Indices
Tool to fetch information about indices managed by kibana's index management feature. it queries the underlying elasticsearch / cat/indices api to retrieve index details. use when you need to list or get details about one or more indices in the cluster.
Why this helps
Pipeline failures can be caused by missing or unhealthy data, yet that check is often skipped.
- Supports faster root-cause checks
- Makes data dependencies visible
