Shorten GitHub secret scanning alert links

Make urgent alert handoffs fast and unambiguous.

Trigger

New Secret Scanning Alert Detected

Triggers when a new secret scanning alert is detected in a GitHub repository. Monitors open secret scanning alerts and fires an event for each newly detected alert. Supports filtering by secret type (e.g., personal access tokens, AWS keys) and by token validity status (active, inactive, unknown). The payload includes the alert number, secret type, validity status, resolution state, timestamps, URLs, and flags for push protection bypass, public exposure, and multi-repo detection.

Action

Shorten a long URL

Tool to shorten a long url into a compact short link. use after obtaining the long url when you need a shareable link.

Why this helps

When a possible leaked secret appears, finding and sending the correct alert link should take seconds.

  • Reduce delay during incident response
  • Give teammates one clean reference

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and U301 through Notis.
  • 2Create an automation called Secret alert link.
  • 3Tell Notis to shorten every new secret scanning alert URL with U301.
  • 4Pick New Secret Scanning Alert Detected and a channel.
  • 5Use a safe real example to verify the run.

Questions about this workflow

Does the short link expose the secret?

It points to the existing GitHub alert; access still follows GitHub permissions.
