Catch CI Breaks Before They Break Your Day
Your workflow fails silently and you don't know until tomorrow morning when you try to merge something else. Get a Telegram alert the moment CI fails so you can fix it while the error is still in your head.
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
Send Message
Send a text message to a telegram chat using the bot api.
Why this helps
GitHub Actions workflow runs in the background and fails. You don't see it until the next day when you're trying to deploy and discover the build is broken. Now you've got to context-switch hard and burn time.
- Fix build failures immediately while the error is fresh
- Stop discovering broken builds when you're ready to ship
- Keep development velocity high by not letting CI silently break
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Telegram to Notis.
- 2Tell Notis: 'Alert me in Telegram if a workflow run fails', or create the automation in the portal.
- 3Select 'GitHub Workflow Run State Changed' as the trigger.
- 4Specify your Telegram notification channel.
- 5Test by making a commit that fails CI and confirm the failure alert arrives.
Questions about this workflow
Will I get notified for every workflow or just the main branch?
You can configure this. Most teams alert on main branch only to avoid noise.
What if I only care about failed runs, not successful ones?
Perfect. Tell Notis to only alert on failures and you won't get spammed with success messages.
Can I get details about what failed in the Telegram message?
Yes. Notis can include the failure reason and a link to the full logs.
