Turn GitHub feature requests into Productboard notes
Keep product evidence close to your roadmap without copying issue details by hand.
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 Note (v2)
Tool to create a new note in Productboard using the v2 API. Use when you need to create simple text notes or conversation-style notes with optional relationships to customers, companies, or external links.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Productboard. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
GitHub triggers
Productboard actions
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.
Add Note Followers
Tool to add multiple followers to a Productboard note. Use when you need to bulk-add existing users as followers to a specific note by their email addresses.
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.
Add Note Tag
Adds a tag to a Productboard note for categorization and organization. Use this action to apply tags to notes based on their content, priority, source, or any other classification criteria. Tags help organize and filter notes in Productboard. If the specified tag doesn't exist in the workspace, it will be automatically created. Tags are case-sensitive. Common use cases: - Categorize notes by priority (e.g., "Urgent", "High Priority") - Label feature requests vs. bugs (e.g., "feature-request", "bug") - Mark notes for review stages (e.g., "needs review", "approved") - Associate notes with time periods (e.g., "Q1-2026", "Sprint-5")
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.

Optionally filters by GitHub App ID.
Create Component
Tool to create a new (sub)component under a product or component. Use after determining the parent component ID.
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.

The payload includes the alert number, rule details, tool information, state, severity, and the location of the most recent instance.
