Give every new GitHub branch its own Neon environment
Start coding with an isolated database already waiting for the branch.
Trigger
New Branch Created
Fires when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository.
Action
Create new project branch
Why this helps
Founders lose momentum when they have to remember database setup before they can test an idea.
- Shortens the path from idea to runnable code
- Prevents experiments from colliding
- Creates consistent development environments
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Neon to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or tell Notis to create a Neon branch whenever a new GitHub branch is created.
- 3Choose the GitHub New Branch Created trigger and select a channel for run reports.
- 4Create one test branch and verify the corresponding Neon branch.
Questions about this workflow
Can this support feature branches?
Yes. Describe the branch naming or repository scope you want in the instruction, and Notis will use the GitHub event context.
Does it change the GitHub branch?
No. The workflow creates the corresponding Neon project branch.
