Keep important branch checks in place
Your safety rails should survive team and workflow changes.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Add status check contexts
Adds status check contexts (provided in the request body, e.g., `{"contexts": ["new-context"]}`) to a protected branch, requiring these contexts to have been previously reported.
Why this helps
Required checks can drift as pipelines evolve, leaving important branches less protected than expected.
- Preserves consistent merge safeguards
- Reduces configuration drift
- Makes branch protection easier to maintain
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Cloudconvert and GitHub to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create a recurring automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it.
- 3Use this instruction: Once a week, ensure the required status check contexts for our Cloudconvert processing branches are present on the protected branches and report any changes.
- 4Choose a recurring trigger and reporting channel, then test with one protected branch.
Questions about this workflow
Will it remove existing checks?
No. The GitHub action adds the specified contexts; define the desired set clearly in the instruction.
Can it cover multiple repositories?
Yes. Name the repositories and branches in the plain-language instruction.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Cloudconvert to GitHub. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

GitHub actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Accept a repository invitation
Accepts a pending repository invitation that has been issued to the authenticated user.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
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.
Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.
Cloudconvert and GitHub, or any other combination from 1,000+ integrations.
