Bring backlink language into release-asset promotion

A newly uploaded release asset prompts Notis to examine the anchor texts already pointing to its public destination.

Trigger

New GitHub Release Asset Added

Triggers when a new asset is added to a specific GitHub release. Monitors a single release (identified by release ID) for newly uploaded assets such as binaries, archives, or checksum files. One event is emitted per new asset, containing full asset metadata.

Action

Get anchor texts

Use this action to get a csv report of anchor texts for backlinks pointing to a specified, publicly accessible domain, root domain, or url.

Why this helps

Release promotion starts quickly, while existing backlink language and brand phrasing remain unknown to the people writing outreach.

  • Shows how other sites currently describe the product
  • Gives outreach and launch copy useful backlink context
  • Connects asset publication to a specific promotional insight

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Semrush to Notis.
  • 2Ask Notis to retrieve Semrush anchor texts for the public release destination when a new asset is added.
  • 3Select New GitHub Release Asset Added and identify the monitored release.
  • 4Choose the report channel and test by uploading one release asset.

Questions about this workflow

Can Semrush analyze a private download URL?

No. Use a publicly accessible domain or URL that Semrush can analyze.

Will every asset create a separate report?

The trigger emits one event per new asset. Tell Notis to skip asset types that are not relevant to promotion.
