Stop stale work when a role is no longer open
A closed role should not keep consuming attention or CI capacity. Let the Workday status change clean up the related run.
Trigger
Job Posting Changed
Triggers when a specific job posting's details change (title, status, posting dates, location, etc.). This trigger monitors a single job posting and fires when any of its fields are modified.
Action
Cancel a workflow run
Cancels a workflow run in a github repository if it is in a cancellable state (e.g., 'in progress' or 'queued').
Why this helps
Closed hiring work continues because nobody remembers which technical workflows are still running.
- Prevents obsolete work from completing
- Reduces noisy notifications
- Keeps automation spend focused
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Workday and GitHub once.
- 2Create an automation with: “When a Workday job posting changes to closed, cancel any related cancellable GitHub workflow run.”
- 3Choose Job Posting Changed and select your reporting channel.
- 4Test with a non-critical queued workflow tied to a closed test posting.
Questions about this workflow
Will it cancel completed workflows?
No. GitHub only cancels runs that are queued or in progress and cancellable.
Can I target only hiring-related runs?
Yes. State the repository and workflow-identification rule in the instruction.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Workday to GitHub. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Workday triggers
GitHub actions
Absence Balance Changed
Triggers when a worker's absence balance changes. This trigger monitors a specific worker's absence plan balance and detects any changes to the balance details including quantity available, effective date, position, or other related fields. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect meaningful changes.
Accept a repository invitation
Accepts a pending repository invitation that has been issued to the authenticated user.
Balance Details Changed
Triggers when details of a specific balance change (quantity, accruals, adjustments, etc.). This trigger monitors a specific worker's absence plan balance and detects any changes to the balance details including quantity available, effective date, position, or other related fields. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect meaningful field changes.
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.
Interview Feedback Submitted or Updated
Triggers when interview feedback is submitted or updated for a specific interview. This trigger monitors a specific interview and fires when new feedback entries are detected or existing feedback is modified.
List stargazers
Deprecated: lists users who have starred a repository; use `list stargazers` instead.
Job Posting Changed
Triggers when a specific job posting's details change (title, status, posting dates, location, etc.). This trigger monitors a single job posting and fires when any of its fields are modified.
Star a repository for the authenticated user
Deprecated: stars a repository for the authenticated user; use `star a repository for the authenticated user` instead.
Job Posting Questionnaire Changed
Triggers when a job posting's candidate questionnaire is added or changed. This trigger monitors a specific job posting's questionnaires and detects any changes including additions, removals, or modifications to questionnaires and questions. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect meaningful changes.
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.
New Absence Balance
Triggers when a new absence balance record becomes available for a worker. This trigger monitors a specific worker's absence balances and detects when new balance records appear (e.g., a new plan/bucket becomes available). Uses snapshot-based diffing to compare balance record IDs between polls.
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 Interview Scheduled
Triggers when a new interview is scheduled/created in Workday. This trigger monitors interviews and fires when new interview records are detected.
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 Job Posting
Triggers when a new job posting appears (newly published/opened) in Workday. This trigger monitors job postings and fires when new postings are detected.
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.
