Check Prismic source content when a release changes
Release notes are easier when the source content is already in front of you.
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
Get Prismic Document by ID
Tool to retrieve a specific prismic document by its id. use after obtaining a content ref.
Why this helps
Release details can diverge from the source content used across the website and customer communications.
- Keeps release communication grounded in source content.
- Reduces hunting for the canonical Prismic document.
- Makes release review more repeatable.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Prismic once through the Notis portal.
- 2Create the automation in Automations or ask Notis to create it in plain language.
- 3Use this instruction: When a GitHub release changes, retrieve the matching Prismic source document using the release tag or title and return it with the release details.
- 4Select the release state changed trigger and choose a reporting channel.
- 5Test it with one draft or published release update.
