Share GitHub releases on Reddit
Let Notis draft and publish a focused release update when your GitHub release changes to published.
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
Create a Reddit post
Creates a new text or link post on a specified, existing reddit subreddit, optionally applying a flair.
Why this helps
Release day already scatters attention across code, support, and launch channels.
- Keeps launches visible without a separate posting task
- Uses release notes as the single source of truth
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Reddit to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Open Automations and choose New Automation.
- 3Write one instruction to turn published release notes into a concise Reddit post for your chosen subreddit.
- 4Select the GitHub Release State Changed trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Publish a test release update and review the Reddit post.
Questions about this workflow
Can I review the wording first?
Yes. Ask Notis to send the draft to your reporting channel before it posts.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Reddit. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
GitHub triggers
Reddit 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.
Create a Reddit post
Creates a new text or link post on a specified, existing reddit subreddit, optionally applying a flair.
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.
Delete Reddit comment
Deletes a reddit comment, identified by its fullname id, if it was authored by the authenticated user.
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.
Delete a Reddit post
Permanently deletes a reddit post by its id, provided the authenticated user has deletion permissions for that post.
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.
Edit comment or post
Edits the body text of the authenticated user's own existing comment or self-post on reddit; cannot edit link posts or titles.
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 link flair
Fetches the list of available link flairs (i.e., post flairs, not user flairs) for a given subreddit.
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.
Post a comment
Posts a comment on reddit, replying to an existing and accessible submission (post) or another comment.
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.
Retrieve Comments for a Post
Retrieves all comments for a reddit post given its article id (which must be for an existing, public post); nested replies within comments are returned as raw dictionaries requiring parsing.
