Clean up GitHub build caches after outreach launches
A small cleanup step keeps the next build from inheriting yesterday's clutter.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Clear repository cache by key
Deletes github actions caches from a repository matching a specific `key` and an optional git `ref`, used to manage storage or clear outdated/corrupted caches; the action succeeds even if no matching caches are found to delete.
Why this helps
Old caches consume storage and create confusing build behavior after rapid campaign-related changes.
- Keeps build storage under control
- Reduces stale-cache debugging
- Adds cleanup to an existing campaign rhythm
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Lemlist and GitHub to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create a recurring automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it.
- 3Write: After each completed Lemlist campaign cycle, clear the outdated GitHub Actions cache for the related repository and ref, then report the result.
- 4Pick notis_cron, set the review timing, and choose the reporting channel.
- 5Test with one repository cache key.
Questions about this workflow
Will all caches be deleted?
The instruction can specify the repository, cache key, and ref to limit cleanup.
When should it run?

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Lemlist to GitHub. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Lemlist triggers
GitHub actions
Accept a repository invitation
Accepts a pending repository invitation that has been issued to the authenticated user.
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.
List stargazers
Deprecated: lists users who have starred a repository; use `list stargazers` instead.
Star a repository for the authenticated user
Deprecated: stars a repository for the authenticated user; use `star a repository for the authenticated user` instead.
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.
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.
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.
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.
