Make GitHub label changes visible in workload data

Use label changes as a lightweight cue to refresh the workload picture.

Trigger

GitHub Issue Labels Changed

Triggers when the labels on a specific GitHub issue change. Fires whenever a label is added to, removed from, or has its metadata (color, description) modified on the monitored issue. The payload includes: - ``current_labels`` -- the full set of labels currently on the issue - ``added_labels`` -- labels that were newly added - ``removed_label_names`` -- names of labels that were removed - ``changed_label_names`` -- labels whose metadata changed without being added or removed

Action

Run Card Query

Tool to run the query associated with a Card and return its results. Use when you need to execute a card's query with optional parameters and cache control.

Why this helps

Changing an issue label can silently alter priorities without updating the planning context.

  • Catches shifting priorities
  • Supports better capacity choices
  • Prevents missed follow-up

Setup

  • 1Connect GitHub and Metabase to Notis once.
  • 2Add a new automation in the portal.
  • 3Write a prompt to run your workload question when GitHub issue labels change.
  • 4Select GitHub Issue Labels Changed and the channel for run reports.
  • 5Test by changing a label on an issue.
