Give every new GitHub issue a simple intake record
When a GitHub issue arrives, Notis can write a compact text record to a OneDrive intake folder. Keep a second, easy-to-search handoff without copying issue details yourself.
Trigger
New Issue Created
Triggers when a new issue is created in a GitHub repository. Pull requests are automatically excluded -- only true issues produce events. Results can be filtered by labels, assignee, creator, and mentioned user. The payload includes the issue number, title, body, state, labels, assignees, comment count, creator details, timestamps, and direct links to the issue on GitHub.
Action
Create a new text file
Creates a new text file with specified content in a onedrive folder, using either the folder's unique id or its absolute path (paths are automatically resolved to ids); note that onedrive may rename or create a new version if the filename already exists.
Why this helps
A new issue may need triage later, but it is easy to lose its context among repository notifications and other work.
- Create a durable intake note with the issue title, body, creator, timestamps, and direct link available from the event.
- Keep a lightweight record in a OneDrive folder used for planning or review.
- Reduce the chance that a newly filed request gets lost in notifications.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and OneDrive to Notis once and choose an existing OneDrive folder for intake notes.
- 2In the portal, create an automation with a prompt to write a concise text note for each new issue; or ask Notis to create it in plain language.
- 3Select the new issue trigger, choose the run-report channel, and create the workflow.
- 4Test with one real issue and confirm its note includes a usable GitHub link and the details your intake process needs.
Questions about this workflow
Does this trigger include pull requests?
No. The new issue trigger explicitly excludes pull requests and emits only true GitHub issues.
Can it create an intake record for issues already in the repository?
This trigger responds to newly created issues. It does not backfill existing issues.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to One drive. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
GitHub triggers
One drive actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Copy Item
Tool to copy a driveitem (file or folder) to a new location asynchronously. use when you need to duplicate an item, optionally renaming it or specifying a different parent folder. the operation is asynchronous; the response provides a url to monitor the copy progress.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Create Sharing Link
Tool to create a sharing link for a driveitem (file or folder) by its unique id. use when you need to generate a shareable link for an item in onedrive or sharepoint.
New Workflow Artifact Created
Triggers when a new workflow artifact is created in a GitHub repository. Monitors for newly created GitHub Actions workflow artifacts. Optionally filters by artifact name to restrict monitoring to specific artifacts.
Delete Item
Tool to delete a driveitem (file or folder) by its unique id from the authenticated user's onedrive. use when you need to remove an item from onedrive. this action moves the item to the recycle bin, not permanently deleting it.
Branch Changed
Triggers when a GitHub branch changes. Monitors a specific branch for: - New commits pushed (head commit SHA changes) - Protection status toggled (branch becomes protected or unprotected) - Protection settings changed, including: required status checks and their enforcement level, admin enforcement, required pull request reviews (dismiss stale reviews, code owner reviews, approving review count, last push approval), required linear history, force push allowance, deletion allowance, conversation resolution, branch locking, and fork syncing.
Download a file
Downloads a file from a user's onedrive using its item id, which must refer to a file and not a folder.
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.
Get Drive
Retrieves the properties and relationships of a drive resource by its unique id. use this action when you need to get details about a specific onedrive, user's onedrive, group's document library, or a site's document library.
Check Run Status / Conclusion Changed
Triggers when a specific GitHub check run changes its status or conclusion. Monitors a single check run for changes to: status (queued, in_progress, completed, etc.), conclusion (success, failure, neutral, cancelled, skipped, timed_out, action_required), started_at, and completed_at.
Get Item Metadata
Retrieves the metadata of a driveitem by its unique id. use this tool to get information about a specific file or folder in onedrive when you have its id. if a `drive id` is not provided, it defaults to the user's main drive.
Check Suite Status / Conclusion Changed
Triggers when a GitHub check suite changes its status or conclusion for a given ref. Monitors all check suites associated with a git reference (branch, tag, or commit SHA) for changes to status (queued, in_progress, completed, etc.) and conclusion (success, failure, neutral, cancelled, skipped, timed_out, action_required, startup_failure, stale). Optionally filters by GitHub App ID.
Get Item Permissions
Retrieves the permissions of a driveitem by its unique id or path within a specific drive. use when you need to check who has access to a file or folder and what level of access they have.
New Code Scanning Alert Created
Triggers when a new code scanning alert is created in a repository. Fires an event for each newly created code scanning alert detected in the configured repository. Alerts can be filtered by Git reference, scanning tool, state, and severity. The payload includes the alert number, rule details, tool information, state, severity, and the location of the most recent instance.
Get Item Thumbnails
Tool to retrieve the thumbnails associated with a driveitem. use when you need to display visual previews of files.
