Keep resource specifications aligned with issue changes
When the tracked issue changes materially, update the solar model in the same workflow.
Trigger
Issue State / Properties Changed
Triggers when a specific GitHub issue changes any of its tracked properties. Monitored properties: state (open/closed), state_reason, title, body, assignees, labels, milestone, lock status, active_lock_reason, comment count, and closed_at timestamp. When a change is detected, the payload includes the full current issue details, the list of changed field names, and their previous values.
Action
Update PV Power Resource
Tool to update an existing PV power resource with comprehensive technical specifications for solar installation site modeling. Use when you need to modify resource configuration including capacity, orientation, tracking parameters, derating factors, and bifacial system settings.
Why this helps
A changed issue can alter assumptions without creating a reliable reminder to update the forecasting resource.
- Captures material changes reliably
- Reduces stale technical assumptions
- Makes issue updates more consequential and useful
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Solcast to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to update the full corresponding Solcast PV resource when tracked issue properties change materially.
- 3Pick the Issue State / Properties Changed trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
- 4Test with one controlled issue property change.
Questions about this workflow
Which properties are tracked?
The trigger can monitor state, title, body, assignees, labels, milestones, lock status, comment count, and related fields.
Should every issue update the resource?
No. Focus the trigger and instruction on issues whose properties represent PV system or site changes.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Solcast. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
GitHub triggers
Solcast actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Get Historic Radiation And Weather
Tool to get historical irradiance and weather estimated actuals for a requested location. Use when you need historical solar radiation and weather data from 2007-01-01 to 7 days ago, for up to 31 days at a time.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Get PV Power Resource
Tool to retrieve a specific PV power resource by its unique identifier. Use when you need to fetch complete resource configuration including capacity, orientation, tracking, and derating parameters.
New Workflow Artifact Created
Triggers when a new workflow artifact is created in a GitHub repository. Monitors for newly created GitHub Actions workflow artifacts. Optionally filters by artifact name to restrict monitoring to specific artifacts.
Get Resources PV Power Sites
Tool to list PV power resources available to authenticated user. Use when you need to retrieve the list of PV power sites with optional filtering by entitlement level.
Branch Changed
Triggers when a GitHub branch changes. 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.
Patch PV Power Resource
Tool to partially update an existing PV power resource's technical specifications. Use when you need to modify specific resource configuration fields without replacing the entire resource.
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.
Create PV Power Resource
Tool to create a new PV power resource for Advanced PV Power forecasting. Use when you need to add a new solar installation site with comprehensive technical specifications including capacity, orientation, tracking parameters, and derating factors.
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.
Update PV Power Resource
Tool to update an existing PV power resource with comprehensive technical specifications for solar installation site modeling. Use when you need to modify resource configuration including capacity, orientation, tracking parameters, derating factors, and bifacial system settings.
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. 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.
