Refresh domain context as issue decisions change
Keep evolving plans tied to facts that are still current.
Trigger
Issue State / Properties Changed
Triggers when a specific GitHub issue changes any of its tracked properties. Monitored properties: state (open/closed), state_reason, title, body, assignees, labels, milestone, lock status, active_lock_reason, comment count, and closed_at timestamp. When a change is detected, the payload includes the full current issue details, the list of changed field names, and their previous values.
Action
WHOIS Live Lookup V2
Tool to fetch real-time WHOIS domain data using v2.0 endpoint. Use when you need current domain ownership, registration dates, contact information, or nameserver details via the updated v2.0 API. Note that some fields may show 'REDACTED FOR PRIVACY' due to ICANN privacy regulations.
Why this helps
An issue can change from idea to launch plan over weeks, while the domain information attached to it quietly goes stale.
- Refresh facts when plans move forward
- Reduce stale decision context
- Keep long-running issues easier to resume
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Whoisfreaks to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it in plain language.
- 3Use this instruction: When the tracked properties of the selected GitHub issue change, run Whoisfreaks WHOIS Live Lookup V2 for the related domain and explain whether the updated issue needs a fresh registration check.
- 4Pick the issue state and properties changed trigger, choose the run-report channel, and test with one issue update.
Questions about this workflow
Which issue changes should trigger the lookup?
Tell Notis to focus on changes such as status, milestone, labels, or assignee when they signal a planning decision.
Why use V2?
This workflow uses the listed Whoisfreaks WHOIS Live Lookup V2 action for current domain data.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Whoisfreaks. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
GitHub triggers
Whoisfreaks actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
ASN WHOIS Lookup
Tool to retrieve comprehensive ASN WHOIS information including ownership, network infrastructure, and IP address ranges. Use when you need to identify ASN ownership, organization details, or associated IP blocks for network administration or security analysis.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Bulk DNS Lookup
Tool to process multiple domains or IPs simultaneously, returning all DNS records in a single request (max 100). Use when you need to retrieve DNS records for multiple domains at once for efficient batch processing.
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.
Bulk Domain Availability Check
Tool to check availability of multiple domains in one request (max 100 domains). Use when you need to verify if domain names are available for registration. Response time ranges from 16 seconds to 1 minute for 100 domains.
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.
Bulk WHOIS Lookup
Tool to query WHOIS information for up to 100 domains in a single request. Use when you need comprehensive registration details, contact information, name servers, and domain status for multiple domains. Response includes normalized and parsed WHOIS data with 1 credit charged per successful query for each domain.
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.
DNS Live Lookup
Tool to perform real-time DNS record resolution for network diagnostics and configuration verification. Use when you need to retrieve current DNS records for a domain or perform reverse DNS lookup for an IP address.
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.
Check Domain Availability
Tool to check if a domain is available for registration with optional suggestions. Use when you need to verify domain availability or get alternative domain suggestions.
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.
Get Domain Files Status
Tool to check availability and update status of domain data files including newly registered, expired, and dropped domains. Use when you need to verify that domain data files are prepared and ready for download before accessing file download endpoints.
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.
IP Geolocation Lookup
Tool to retrieve geographic location information for an IP address including country, city, coordinates, ISP, and security details. Use when you need to identify the physical location of an IP, detect VPN/proxy usage, or gather network intelligence for security or analytics purposes.
