Make infrastructure follow the workflow that defines it
A new workflow often signals a new product surface. Notis can create the Databricks app so infrastructure does not lag behind the codebase.
Trigger
New GitHub Actions Workflow Added
Triggers when a new GitHub Actions workflow is added to a repository. Monitors a repository's GitHub Actions workflows and fires an event for each newly added workflow. The payload includes the workflow's name, file path, state, creation and update timestamps, and URLs for the API, web interface, and status badge.
Action
Create Databricks App
Tool to create a new Databricks app with specified configuration. Use when you need to create apps hosted on Databricks serverless platform to deploy secure data and AI applications. The app name must be unique within the workspace, contain only lowercase alphanumeric characters and hyphens, and cannot be changed after creation.
Why this helps
Infrastructure requests get lost because they happen outside the pull request and workflow changes that prompted them.
- Aligns app provisioning with engineering intent.
- Reduces setup delays for new analytics services.
- Creates a consistent onboarding pattern.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Databricks once through the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations or ask Notis to create it.
- 3Use a plain-language instruction: when the specified analytics workflow is added, create the matching Databricks app and report its configuration outcome.
- 4Select the new workflow trigger, choose a channel for run reports, and test with one workflow addition.
Questions about this workflow
How do I identify analytics workflows?
Name the workflow or describe its path, repository, and purpose in the instruction.
Does this also deploy source code?
This workflow creates the app. Add a separate deployment step when the source is ready.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Databricks. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
GitHub triggers
Databricks actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Add Member to Security Group
Tool to add a user or group as a member to a Databricks security group. Use when you need to grant group membership for access control.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Delete Custom LLM Agent
Tool to delete a Custom LLM agent created through Agent Bricks. Use when you need to remove a custom LLM and all associated data. This operation is irreversible and deletes all data including temporary transformations, model checkpoints, and internal metadata.
New Workflow Artifact Created
Triggers when a new workflow artifact is created in a GitHub repository. Monitors for newly created GitHub Actions workflow artifacts. Optionally filters by artifact name to restrict monitoring to specific artifacts.
Create Databricks App
Tool to create a new Databricks app with specified configuration. Use when you need to create apps hosted on Databricks serverless platform to deploy secure data and AI applications. The app name must be unique within the workspace, contain only lowercase alphanumeric characters and hyphens, and cannot be changed after creation.
Branch Changed
Triggers when a GitHub branch changes. Monitors a specific branch for: - New commits pushed (head commit SHA changes) - Protection status toggled (branch becomes protected or unprotected) - Protection settings changed, including: required status checks and their enforcement level, admin enforcement, required pull request reviews (dismiss stale reviews, code owner reviews, approving review count, last push approval), required linear history, force push allowance, deletion allowance, conversation resolution, branch locking, and fork syncing.
Delete Databricks App
Tool to delete a Databricks app from the workspace. Use when you need to remove an app and its associated service principal. When an app is deleted, Databricks automatically deletes the provisioned service principal.
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.
Deploy Databricks App
Tool to create a deployment for a Databricks app. Use when you need to deploy an app with source code from a workspace path. The deployment process provisions compute resources and uploads the source code. Deployments can be in states: IN_PROGRESS, SUCCEEDED, FAILED, or CANCELLED.
Check Run Status / Conclusion Changed
Triggers when a specific GitHub check run changes its status or conclusion. Monitors a single check run for changes to: status (queued, in_progress, completed, etc.), conclusion (success, failure, neutral, cancelled, skipped, timed_out, action_required), started_at, and completed_at.
Get Databricks App Details
Tool to retrieve details about a specific Databricks app by name. Use when you need to get comprehensive information about an app including configuration, deployment status, compute resources, and metadata.
Check Suite Status / Conclusion Changed
Triggers when a GitHub check suite changes its status or conclusion for a given ref. Monitors all check suites associated with a git reference (branch, tag, or commit SHA) for changes to status (queued, in_progress, completed, etc.) and conclusion (success, failure, neutral, cancelled, skipped, timed_out, action_required, startup_failure, stale). Optionally filters by GitHub App ID.
Get Databricks App Permission Levels
Tool to retrieve available permission levels for a Databricks app. Use when you need to understand what permission levels can be assigned to users or groups for a specific app. Returns permission levels like CAN_USE and CAN_MANAGE with their descriptions.
New Code Scanning Alert Created
Triggers when a new code scanning alert is created in a repository. Fires an event for each newly created code scanning alert detected in the configured repository. Alerts can be filtered by Git reference, scanning tool, state, and severity. The payload includes the alert number, rule details, tool information, state, severity, and the location of the most recent instance.
Get Databricks App Permissions
Tool to retrieve permissions for a Databricks app. Use when you need to check who has access to an app and their permission levels. Returns the access control list including inherited permissions from parent or root objects.
