Check Shopify products when documentation changes
A documentation update is a useful nudge to review customer-facing catalog copy.
Trigger
GitHub Repository README Changed
Triggers when the README file in a specific repository directory changes. Monitors the README in a configurable directory and branch/tag/commit. The payload includes the current README metadata (filename, path, SHA, size, URLs), the previous and current git blob SHAs, and a list of which tracked fields changed.
Action
Get product
Retrieves details for an existing shopify product using its unique product id.
Why this helps
Product details drift when release notes and storefront descriptions change in separate routines.
- Prompts timely review
- Reduces copy drift
- Keeps scope focused
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Shopify once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation called Catalog documentation check.
- 3Ask Notis to retrieve the matching Shopify product and report whether its listing needs review after a README change.
- 4Select GitHub Repository README Changed and a reporting channel.
- 5Edit a real README to test it.
Questions about this workflow
Does Notis rewrite the listing automatically?
This workflow retrieves and reports on the product; ask for a separate update workflow if you want approved changes applied.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Shopify. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
