Update an existing UptimeRobot monitor from a GitHub task

When a monitor-maintenance issue is assigned to you, Notis can apply the requested edit to the existing UptimeRobot monitor identified in the issue.

Trigger

New Issue Assigned to Me

Triggers when a new issue is assigned to the authenticated user. Fires an event for each GitHub issue that is newly assigned to the authenticated user. Pull requests are automatically excluded -- only true issues are emitted. Issues can optionally be filtered by labels and state. The payload includes the issue number, title, body, state, labels, assignees, creator, repository details, and timestamps.

Action

Edit Monitor

Tool to edit an existing monitor. use after confirming the monitor id exists.

Why this helps

Small monitor-setting changes can sit in the task queue while someone switches tools to locate the right monitor.

  • Apply a specific monitor change when its follow-up issue becomes yours.
  • Avoid editing a different monitor by requiring the existing monitor ID in the request.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and UptimeRobot to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis for it in plain language.
  • 3Tell Notis to edit only an existing monitor whose ID and requested change are explicit in the assigned issue; skip ambiguous requests.
  • 4Select GitHub New Issue Assigned to Me and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one assigned issue naming an existing monitor ID and a supported change.

Questions about this workflow

Will it create a monitor if the ID is missing?

No. This workflow is for editing an existing monitor and should run only when the issue provides the monitor ID and a clear requested change.

Can it edit any kind of UptimeRobot setting?

The request lists the Edit Monitor action but does not enumerate its editable fields. Keep the instruction to changes supported by the connected action and have Notis report any unsupported request.
