Give every release handoff a communication home
A reviewer handoff is a perfect moment to make the release follow-up explicit.
Trigger
GitHub Pull Request Reviewers Changed
Triggers when the list of requested reviewers (users or teams) for a pull request changes — for example when a reviewer is added, removed, or re-requested. The payload includes the full current reviewer list (users and teams with details), which reviewers were added, which were removed, and the previous reviewer list for reference.
Action
Create List
Tool to create a new list. use when you need to add a brand-new mailing list before sending campaigns.
Why this helps
When review ownership changes, the communication task can become nobody's task.
- Creates a visible audience container during handoffs
- Makes release communication ownership easier to spot
- Reduces dropped balls when work moves between people
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Sendlane to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal, or ask Notis to set it up by conversation.
- 3Tell Notis: when reviewers change on a customer-facing pull request, create a Sendlane list for the release handoff and name it clearly.
- 4Select the GitHub reviewer change trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one planned reviewer handoff.
Questions about this workflow
Can this be limited to important pull requests?

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.
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.

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.
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.
