Notis

Close the loop between Knack delivery records and GitHub

Know which commitments are actually complete.

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

A delivery record can look finished while the linked pull request is still waiting or unmerged.

  • Creates a reliable completion check.
  • Reduces premature status updates.
  • Makes follow-up lists easier to trust.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Knack and GitHub to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to set it up.
  • 3Use this instruction: Check whether each GitHub pull request linked to an active Knack delivery record has merged and report exceptions.
  • 4Choose a recurring trigger, select the report channel, and test with one completed and one pending pull request.

Questions about this workflow

Does it merge pull requests?

No. It checks whether the specified pull requests have already merged.

What should happen with pending items?

Ask Notis to return a concise follow-up list for pending records.

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.
