See what failed when CI breaks

A failed workflow becomes easier to investigate when the affected page is captured automatically.

Trigger

GitHub Workflow Run State Changed

Triggers when a GitHub Actions workflow run's status or conclusion changes. Monitors a single workflow run and fires an event whenever it transitions between states (e.g., queued to in_progress, or in_progress to completed) or when its conclusion is set (e.g., success, failure, cancelled).

Action

Screenshot API

Tool to capture a screenshot of a webpage. use when you need a visual snapshot of a page; supports full-page, device emulation, delays, and dark mode.

Why this helps

When CI fails, the diagnosis gets delayed by reconstructing which environment, route, or build state needs inspection.

  • Preserve the page state near the failure
  • Shorten the path from alert to investigation
  • Reduce the need to reconstruct failed contexts

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Serpdog once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Start a new automation in the portal or ask Notis to build it.
  • 3Write one instruction asking Notis to screenshot the affected webpage when a workflow run concludes with failure.
  • 4Choose the GitHub workflow run state trigger and a reporting channel.
  • 5Trigger one controlled workflow failure and inspect the result.

Questions about this workflow

What should the screenshot URL be?

Include the relevant staging, preview, or diagnostic webpage in your plain-language instruction.

Can the workflow run on every failure?

Yes, or you can describe a specific workflow in the instruction.

Supported Triggers and Actions

Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Serpdog. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

TriggerPolling

New Branch Created

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

TriggerPolling

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.

TriggerPolling

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.

TriggerPolling

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.

TriggerPolling

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.
