Notis

Make version milestones visible

A new tag is a clean signal that something important has been packaged and named.

Trigger

New Repository Tag Created

Triggers when a new tag is created in a GitHub repository. Monitors the repository's tags and fires an event for each newly created tag. The payload includes the tag name, the commit SHA and URL it points to, and archive download URLs.

Action

Update Campaign

Tool to update an existing campaign's details by its id. use when you need to modify campaign attributes after creation.

Why this helps

Version milestones are recorded technically but not carried into the supporter story.

  • Creates a dependable milestone signal
  • Reduces manual campaign updates
  • Makes product progress easier to understand

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Givebutter to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis in plain language.
  • 3Tell Notis to update the matching Givebutter campaign whenever a new version tag is created, including the tag and commit context.
  • 4Select the new repository tag trigger, choose a channel for reports, and test with one real tag.

Questions about this workflow

Can this watch only release tags?

Yes. Set the GitHub trigger to monitor the relevant tag pattern or repository.

Can Notis explain the technical tag in plain language?

Yes. Ask it to summarize the milestone for supporters rather than copying raw technical details.
