Start workflows with a site availability check

Begin important automation with a clear view of the solar resources available to it.

Trigger

New Workflow Run Created

Triggers when a new workflow run is created in a GitHub repository. Monitors the repository for any new workflow runs and fires an event for each one. Optional filters allow narrowing to a specific branch, actor, or event type.

Action

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.

Why this helps

Teams discover missing or unavailable resources only after work is already underway.

  • Surfaces availability earlier
  • Reduces surprise blockers
  • Creates a simple start-of-work checkpoint

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 list available Solcast PV power sites whenever a new workflow run is created.
  • 3Pick the New Workflow Run Created trigger and choose a channel for run reports.
  • 4Test with one newly created workflow run.

Questions about this workflow

When is this most useful?

It is useful for workflows that depend on known Solcast sites or that launch recurring forecasting operations.

Will it change any Solcast resources?

No. This workflow only lists the resources available to the authenticated account.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Solcast actions

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.

TriggerPolling

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.

ActionInstant

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.

TriggerPolling

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.

ActionInstant

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

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.

ActionInstant

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

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.

ActionInstant

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

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.

ActionInstant

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

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.

ActionInstant

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.

TriggerPolling

Commit Event

Triggered when a new commit is pushed to a repository.
