Reuse release notes instead of rewriting them
Your GitHub release becomes the starting point for a concise Typefully thread your audience can understand.
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
Create Draft
Creates a draft in typefully.
Why this helps
Release notes contain the substance, but turning them into an approachable post becomes another unfinished task.
- Reuse work already written
- Explain technical changes in user language
- Make release communication more consistent
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Typefully to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to set it up conversationally.
- 3Tell Notis to turn each changed GitHub release into a Typefully thread draft with a hook, key benefits, and release link.
- 4Choose the GitHub release state trigger and select a run-report channel.
- 5Test with one existing release update.
Questions about this workflow
Can the thread be nontechnical?
Yes. State in the instruction that the audience is customers or prospects and ask Notis to translate implementation details into outcomes.
Can I use this for prereleases?
Yes, if your selected GitHub trigger monitors those release changes.
