Notis

Start each release handoff from a ready-made OneDrive kit

A published release can trigger a copy of your prepared OneDrive release-kit file or folder. Notis can name the copy for the GitHub tag so the next handoff starts with a consistent structure.

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

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.

Why this helps

Rebuilding a release handoff folder from scratch adds small setup tasks at the moment attention is already split across shipping and communication.

  • Start a version-specific handoff from an existing OneDrive kit.
  • Use the GitHub release tag and title to identify the copied kit.
  • Avoid repeatedly copying and renaming the same release materials by hand.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and OneDrive to Notis once, and identify the existing OneDrive release-kit item and destination folder.
  • 2Create an automation through the portal or by asking Notis; instruct it to copy the chosen kit when the monitored release is published and name the copy using its release tag.
  • 3Choose the GitHub release state-changed trigger for the tag you want to monitor, and select a channel for run reports.
  • 4Test with a real published release and confirm the copied item appears in the intended OneDrive location with a clear version name.

Questions about this workflow

Will this copy a kit for draft releases too?

The release trigger monitors multiple release properties, including the draft flag and publication time. Instruct Notis to copy only after the release is published, not when it is still a draft.

Does the workflow create a new OneDrive folder automatically?

It copies an existing file or folder to a new location and can rename the copy. Make sure the source kit and destination location are accessible before enabling the automation.

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.

TriggerPolling

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.

ActionInstant

New Branch Created

Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.

TriggerPolling

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.

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.

TriggerPolling

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.

ActionInstant

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.

TriggerPolling

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.

ActionInstant

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.

TriggerPolling

Get Item Thumbnails

Tool to retrieve the thumbnails associated with a driveitem. use when you need to display visual previews of files.
