Give location labels an immediate next step
A useful label should do more than sort the backlog. It can start the local search too.
Trigger
GitHub Issue Labels Changed
Triggers when the labels on a specific GitHub issue change. Fires whenever a label is added to, removed from, or has its metadata (color, description) modified on the monitored issue. The payload includes: - ``current_labels`` -- the full set of labels currently on the issue - ``added_labels`` -- labels that were newly added - ``removed_label_names`` -- names of labels that were removed - ``changed_label_names`` -- labels whose metadata changed without being added or removed
Action
Nearby search
Searches for places (e.g., restaurants, parks) within a specified circular area, with options to filter by place types and customize the returned fields and number of results.
Why this helps
Labels such as onsite, hardware, or local help often identify work that still needs a manual research step.
- Turns a classification into action
- Standardizes responses to local-work labels
- Makes recurring operational requests easier to handle
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Google Maps to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in plain language to search nearby for the resource requested by an issue when a relevant label is added.
- 3Select the GitHub issue labels changed trigger and choose a run-report channel.
- 4Test by adding the chosen location-related label to a real issue.
Questions about this workflow
Which labels should be used?
Choose labels your team already uses, such as onsite, local, hardware, courier, or customer-visit.
Can the search category vary by issue?
Yes. Ask Notis to infer the requested resource from the issue context.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Google Maps. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
GitHub triggers
Google Maps actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Distance Matrix
Calculates travel distance and time for a matrix of origins and destinations. supports different modes of transportation and options like departure/arrival times. use when needing to determine travel metrics between multiple points.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Geocoding, Reverse Geocoding, and Place ID Lookup
Deprecated: tool to convert addresses into geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) and vice versa (reverse geocoding), or get an address for a place id. use for finding coordinates for an address, finding an address for coordinates, or looking up an address by its place id.
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.
Get directions
Fetches detailed directions between an origin and a destination, supporting intermediate waypoints and various travel modes.
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.
Get Route
Calculates one or more routes between two specified locations using various travel modes and preferences; addresses must be resolvable by google maps.
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.
Embed Google Map
Tool to generate an embeddable google map url and html iframe code. use when you need to display a map (place, view, directions, street view, search) on a webpage without javascript.
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.
Nearby search
Searches for places (e.g., restaurants, parks) within a specified circular area, with options to filter by place types and customize the returned fields and number of results.
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.
Text Search
Searches for places on google maps using a textual query (e.g., "restaurants in london", "eiffel tower").
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.
