Ways Notis can move work from GitHub to Google Docs
Turn new pull requests into focused review briefs
Create a Google Doc brief for every new pull request so review context is ready in one place.
Create issue intake notes from new GitHub issues
Capture each new issue in a Google Doc with a practical first-pass plan.
Append pull request review feedback to a decision log
Add each submitted review to a shared Google Doc so feedback stays visible.
Create response briefs for new code scanning alerts
Generate a Google Doc response brief when GitHub finds a new code scanning alert.
Start incident notes for secret scanning alerts
Create a private Google Doc incident note when a GitHub secret scanning alert appears.
Append deployment status updates to a release journal
Record GitHub deployment status changes in a Google Docs release journal.
Refresh release notes when a GitHub release changes
Update a Google Docs release-notes document whenever GitHub release details change.
Create postmortem starters for failed workflow runs
Start a Google Doc postmortem whenever a GitHub Actions workflow run fails.
Draft release announcements from new GitHub tags
Create a Google Docs announcement draft whenever a new repository tag is created.
Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Google Docs. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
GitHub triggers
Google Docs actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Copy Google Document
Tool to create a copy of an existing google document. use this to duplicate a document, for example, when using an existing document as a template. the copied document will have a default title (e.g., 'copy of [original title]') if no new title is provided, and will be placed in the user's root google drive folder.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Create a document
Creates a new google docs document using the provided title as filename and inserts the initial text at the beginning if non-empty, returning the document's id and metadata (excluding body content).
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 Document Markdown
Creates a new google docs document, optionally initializing it with a title and content provided as markdown text.
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.
Create Footer
Tool to create a new footer in a google document. use when you need to add a footer, optionally specifying its type and the section it applies to.
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.
Create Footnote
Tool to create a new footnote in a google document. use this when you need to add a footnote at a specific location or at the end of the document body.
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.
Create Header
Tool to create a new header in a google document. use this tool when you need to add a header to a document, optionally specifying the section it applies to.
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.
Create Named Range
Tool to create a new named range in a google document. use this to assign a name to a specific part of the document for easier reference or programmatic manipulation.
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.
Create Paragraph Bullets
Tool to add bullets to paragraphs within a specified range in a google document. use when you need to format a list or a set of paragraphs as bullet points.
Four ways to start an automation.
A trigger is the event that kicks a workflow off. Notis supports four kinds: an event in a connected app, an inbound webhook, a recurring schedule, and soon, your own database.
Integration triggers
Fire when something happens inside a connected app. New Notion page, Stripe charge, Linear issue: any of 1,000+ apps can start a workflow.
Webhook triggers
A unique URL per workflow. Anything that can send an HTTP POST can start an automation, including no-code tools that speak webhooks.
Recurring triggers
Cron-style schedules run a workflow on the clock. Daily standups, hourly syncs, business-hours-only digests: the workhorse of Notis.
Database triggers
Watch a row, query, or threshold in your own database and fire the moment the data changes. Row inserted, value crosses a limit, query starts matching.
Classic automation breaks. AI adapts.
Same triggers and actions, smarter middle. AI handles the fuzziness that breaks traditional Zapier-style workflows the moment a field gets renamed.
Describe it. Notis builds it.
Skip the visual builder. Tell Notis what you want, in plain English. It writes the workflow, you review and deploy.
You · in the Notis Builder
NEW“When a row gets added to the Q4 OKRs Notion database and the status is Blocked, send a Telegram message to the owner with a summary of what's blocking, and ping me if there's no reply within 24 hours.”
Notis built this automation:

AI in the middle
Every step can include an LLM call: summarise, classify, extract, rewrite.
Full observability
Every run, every step, every input, all replay-able from Mission Control.
Human in the loop
Pause for approval. Notis pings you in chat with one-tap approve.
Self-healing
When an API changes shape, Notis adapts the parser. Less midnight fire-fighting.
