Know about failed GitHub workflows before they become blockers
A failed build should not hide in a notification queue. Send a useful email immediately, with the failure context you need to choose the next move.
Trigger
GitHub Workflow Run State Changed
Triggers when a GitHub Actions workflow run's status or conclusion changes. Monitors a single workflow run and fires an event whenever it transitions between states (e.g., queued to in_progress, or in_progress to completed) or when its conclusion is set (e.g., success, failure, cancelled).
Action
Send Batch Templated Emails
Tool to send multiple templated emails in a single batch API call. Use when you need to send up to 500 templated messages at once.
Why this helps
Build failures can remain unseen until they block a release or a collaborator asks about them.
- Surfaces failures while context is fresh.
- Includes repository, branch, run, and conclusion details.
- Helps you triage without opening multiple tools.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Postmark to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation or ask Notis to send a failure alert email when a workflow run concludes unsuccessfully.
- 3Pick the workflow run state changed trigger, choose the reporting channel, and test with one failed run.
Questions about this workflow
Can the alert distinguish failures from cancellations?
Yes. Tell Notis which workflow conclusions should produce an email.
Can it notify a teammate instead of me?
Yes. State the intended recipient in the plain-language instruction.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Postmark. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
GitHub triggers
Postmark actions
New Workflow Artifact Created

Archive Message Stream
Tool to archive a message stream (soft delete). Use when you need to remove a message stream that will be permanently deleted after 45 days.
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.
Check Spam Score
Tool to assess the spam score of a raw email via the SpamCheck API. Use when you have full email source and need spam scoring before sending. Returns spam score and detailed report.
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.
Create Inbound Rule
Tool to create a new inbound rule trigger to block email from a specific sender or domain. Use when you need to prevent emails from specific addresses or domains from being processed.

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.
Create Message Stream
Tool to create a new message stream. Use when you need to set up separate streams for transactional or broadcast emails.
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.
Create Suppressions
Tool to add email addresses to the suppression list for a message stream. Use when you need to prevent emails from being sent to specific addresses.
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.
Create Template
Tool to create a new email template. Use when you need reusable templates before sending emails.
New Repository Collaborator Added
Triggers when a new collaborator is added to a GitHub repository. Monitors the full list of collaborators on a repository and fires an event for each newly added collaborator. The payload includes the collaborator's GitHub username, account ID, profile URL, avatar URL, permission flags (pull, triage, push, maintain, admin), and assigned role name.
Create Webhook
