Announce GitHub releases on LinkedIn
Let Notis turn release notes into a clear update while the details are still fresh.
Trigger
GitHub Release State Changed
Triggers when a specific GitHub release (identified by tag name) changes. Monitors the release title, body/notes, draft flag, prerelease flag, published timestamp, target branch/commit, and the set of attached assets. The payload includes the full current release details, a list of which fields changed, and the previous values for comparison.
Action
Create a LinkedIn post
Creates a new post on linkedin for the authenticated user or an organization they manage; ensure the user has necessary permissions if posting for an organization.
Why this helps
Launch news often sits in release notes because writing a separate social update takes another context switch.
- Keep launches visible
- Reuse release context
- Avoid last-minute copywriting
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and LinkedIn to Notis once.
- 2In Automations, create an automation and write one prompt asking Notis to draft and publish a concise release announcement.
- 3Pick GitHub Release State Changed as the trigger, choose a report channel, and test with one published release.
Questions about this workflow
Can it avoid draft releases?
Yes. Ask Notis in the prompt to publish only when the release is published and not a draft.
