Close the loop between security signals and repository settings
When security context appears, get the repository status checked while it is still relevant.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Check private vulnerability reporting status
Checks if private vulnerability reporting is enabled for the specified repository.
Why this helps
Security alerts create urgency, but the follow-up configuration check can disappear behind incident response and product work.
- Keeps security follow-up attached to the signal
- Reduces delayed configuration checks
- Creates an auditable response step
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Datadog and GitHub to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it conversationally.
- 3Use this instruction: When a Datadog security webhook arrives, check private vulnerability reporting status for the affected GitHub repository and report whether follow-up is needed.
- 4Pick an incoming webhook trigger, choose the run-report channel, and test with one security example.
Questions about this workflow
Will it change repository settings?
No. It checks the current status and reports the result.
Can it handle multiple affected repositories?
Yes. Tell Notis to check each repository named in the webhook context.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Datadog to GitHub. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Datadog triggers
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.
Datadog and GitHub, or any other combination from 1,000+ integrations.
