Manage GitHub runner labels through external webhooks
Your infrastructure monitoring sends a webhook when a runner needs maintenance. Notis immediately adds a 'needs-maintenance' label to that runner in GitHub so the team sees it and handles it.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Add runner labels
Adds and appends custom labels to a self-hosted repository runner, which must be registered and active.
Why this helps
Runner maintenance needs get lost between monitoring systems and GitHub. A runner is failing, but GitHub still shows it as healthy. Manual label updates lag behind actual infrastructure status.
- Runner labels stay in sync with external monitoring
- GitHub reflects actual runner status in real time
- Reduce manual runner management overhead
- Integration with existing infrastructure tools
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect your GitHub account to Notis
- 2Create an automation: 'When an external system sends a webhook, add a label to a GitHub runner'
- 3Select 'Notis Webhook' as your trigger
- 4Notis generates a webhook URL to use in your monitoring system
- 5Test by sending a test webhook and confirming the label is added to the runner
Questions about this workflow
How do I send webhooks from my infrastructure monitoring?
Notis generates a unique webhook URL. Configure your monitoring tool to POST to that URL with runner details.
Can I add different labels for different events?
Yes. You can map different webhook payloads to different labels (e.g., 'high-cpu' → add 'cpu-heavy' label, 'disk-full' → add 'storage-alert' label).
What payload format does the webhook expect?
Notis is flexible with JSON payloads. You tell it which fields contain the runner name and event type, and it handles the rest.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Google Sheets to GitHub. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Google Sheets triggers
GitHub actions
Aggregate Metric Changed
Triggers when an aggregate metric (SUM/COUNT/AVG/MIN/MAX) changes in a Google Sheets spreadsheet. This trigger monitors an aggregate calculation on a target column (optionally filtered by a search column/value) and fires when the calculated result changes.
Accept a repository invitation
Accepts a pending repository invitation that has been issued to the authenticated user.
Cell Range Values Changed
Triggers when values in a specified A1 range change in Google Sheets. This trigger monitors a specific cell or range of cells and fires when any values change.
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.
Conditional Format Rule Changed
Triggers when conditional formatting rules change in a Google Spreadsheet. Detects when rules are added, updated, or removed. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect changes between polls.
List stargazers
Deprecated: lists users who have starred a repository; use `list stargazers` instead.
Data Validation Rule Changed
Triggers when data validation rules change (added/updated/removed) in a Google Spreadsheet. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect changes between polls.
Star a repository for the authenticated user
Deprecated: stars a repository for the authenticated user; use `star a repository for the authenticated user` instead.
Developer Metadata Changed
Triggers when developer metadata entries change (new/updated/removed) in a Google Spreadsheet. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect changes between polls.
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.
Filtered Range Values Changed
Polling trigger that monitors Google Sheets filtered ranges for value changes. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect when values matching a data filter change. Emits the matched values when changes are detected.
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.
New Rows in Google Sheet
Simple polling trigger that monitors Google Sheets for new rows. Detects when new rows are added and returns the complete row data. Perfect for triggering any workflow based on new sheet entries.
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.
New Sheet Added in Google Spreadsheet
Polling trigger that detects when a new sheet is added to a Google Spreadsheet.
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.
Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.
Not just Google Sheets and GitHub. Any combination from 1,000+ integrations.
