Notis

Check if a GitHub pull request has merged on a daily schedule

You assume the important PR merged days ago, and then find out it did not. On the schedule you set, Notis checks whether a specific pull request has merged and tells you plainly, so a blocking change never hides in your assumptions.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Check if pull request merged

Checks if a specified github pull request has been merged, indicated by a 204 http status (merged) or 404 (not merged/found).

Why this helps

Critical pull requests stall silently, and by the time you notice, whatever depended on them is already behind.

  • You know each day whether the key PR shipped.
  • A stalled merge surfaces before it blocks other work.
  • Replaces manual PR-checking with a plain daily answer.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Tell Notis: Every morning, check whether the release pull request has merged and tell me the status.
  • 3Select the recurring schedule trigger and set your time.
  • 4Choose a channel where Notis posts the daily answer.
  • 5Run it once to confirm you get a clear merged or not-merged status.

Questions about this workflow

Does this merge the PR?

No. It only checks and reports whether the PR has merged so you stay informed.

Can it watch more than one PR?

Yes. Name each pull request in your prompt and Notis checks them all.

What schedule should I use?

Daily is common, but any recurring schedule works.

Supported Triggers and Actions

Notis builds workflows that link Google Calendar to GitHub. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

Google Calendar triggers

GitHub actions

Attendee Response Changed

Polling trigger that fires when any attendee's RSVP changes to accepted, declined, or tentative. Returns attendee info and current status.

TriggerPolling

Accept a repository invitation

Accepts a pending repository invitation that has been issued to the authenticated user.

ActionInstant

Event Canceled or Deleted

Triggers when a Google Calendar event is cancelled or deleted. Returns minimal data: event_id, summary (if available), and cancellation timestamp.

TriggerPolling

List repositories starred by the authenticated user

Deprecated: lists repositories starred by the authenticated user, including star creation timestamps; use 'list repositories starred by the authenticated user' instead.

ActionInstant

Event Starting Soon

Triggers when a calendar event is within a configured number of minutes from starting. Returns event details, time remaining, attendees, and join links when available.

TriggerPolling

List stargazers

Deprecated: lists users who have starred a repository; use `list stargazers` instead.

ActionInstant

Calendar Event Changes

**SOON TO BE DEPRECATED** - Use Calendar Event Sync (polling trigger) instead. Real-time webhook trigger for calendar event changes. Returns event metadata only. For full event data, use Calendar Event Sync (polling trigger).

TriggerInstant

Star a repository for the authenticated user

Deprecated: stars a repository for the authenticated user; use `star a repository for the authenticated user` instead.

ActionInstant

Event Created

Polling trigger that fires when a new calendar event is created. Returns event ID, summary, start/end times, and organizer info.

TriggerPolling

Add email for auth user

Adds one or more email addresses (which will be initially unverified) to the authenticated user's github account; use this to associate new emails, noting an email verified for another account will error, while an existing email for the current user is accepted.

ActionInstant

Calendar Event Sync

Polling trigger that returns full event data including details, attendees, and metadata. For real-time notifications with basic info, use Calendar Event Changes (webhook).

TriggerPolling

Add app access restrictions

Replaces github app access restrictions for an existing protected branch; requires a json array of app slugs in the request body, where apps must be installed and have 'contents' write permissions.

ActionInstant

Event Updated

Triggers when an existing Google Calendar event is modified. Returns the event ID, change type, and the specific fields that changed with their previous and new values.

TriggerPolling

Add a repository collaborator

Adds a github user as a repository collaborator, or updates their permission if already a collaborator; `permission` applies to organization-owned repositories (personal ones default to 'push' and ignore this field), and an invitation may be created or permissions updated directly.

ActionInstant

Add a repository to an app installation

Adds a repository to a github app installation, granting the app access; requires authenticated user to have admin rights for the repository and access to the installation.

ActionInstant

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

Not just Google Calendar and GitHub. Any combination from 1,000+ integrations.
