Check GitHub vulnerability reporting when a Jira security ticket is filed

A security ticket lands and the first question is always the same: is private vulnerability reporting even on for that repo? When the ticket is created in Jira, Notis checks the GitHub repository and tells you, so you start from facts.

Trigger

New Issue

Fires when a new issue is created in the Jira project you configure. Only issues created in that project produce an event.

Action

Check private vulnerability reporting status

Checks if private vulnerability reporting is enabled for the specified repository.

Why this helps

Security tickets arrive without context, and manually checking each repository's vulnerability reporting status is a slow first step every time.

  • You start every security ticket knowing the repo's reporting status
  • Skips a repetitive manual lookup at the worst possible moment
  • Creates a clear record of posture checks in your run channel

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Jira and GitHub to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Open Automations in the portal and select New Automation.
  • 3Describe the outcome: when a security ticket is created in Jira, check whether private vulnerability reporting is enabled on the named GitHub repository.
  • 4Choose the New Issue trigger from Jira and set a channel for run reports.
  • 5File a test security ticket and read the status Notis reports.

Questions about this workflow

What does the check tell me?

It reports whether private vulnerability reporting is enabled for the specified repository.

Can I scope this to security tickets only?

Yes. Your plain-language instruction defines which tickets qualify.

Does it change any settings?

This rule reads the status. You can extend the instruction if you want follow-up actions.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

Jira triggers

GitHub actions

New Issue

Fires when a new issue is created in the Jira project you configure. Only issues created in that project produce an event.

TriggerInstant

Accept a repository invitation

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

ActionInstant

New Project

Triggered when a new project is added in Jira

TriggerInstant

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

Updated Issue

Fires when an existing issue is changed in the Jira project you configure — for example its status, assignee, or any other field on the issue is updated. Only issues in that project produce an event. It does not fire on comment activity: adding, editing, or deleting a comment on an issue will not produce an event from this trigger.

TriggerInstant

List stargazers

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

ActionInstant

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

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

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

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 Jira and GitHub. Any combination from 1,000+ integrations.
