Keep gallery context beside release changes
Release updates become easier when the visual destination is already in view.
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
Get Node Details
This tool retrieves the details for a specific node (e.g., album, folder, page) using its unique nodeid. it uses the api endpoint get /api/v2/node/{nodeid} to fetch details such as uri, nodeid, name, type, and urlpath.
Why this helps
Changing release notes often means rediscovering which gallery, album, or page belongs with the announcement.
- Cuts down on repeated searching
- Keeps release and gallery context together
- Supports faster announcement preparation

- 3Use this instruction: When a GitHub release changes, retrieve the related SmugMug node details and include them in the run report with the release link.
- 4Choose the release state trigger and reporting channel, then test with one release update.
