Catch runner problems before they stall the queue
A failed job creates a focused runner investigation instead of another vague alert.
Trigger
Workflow Job State Changed
Triggers when the status, conclusion, timestamps, runner assignment, or step details of a specific GitHub Actions workflow job change between polls. The payload includes the full current job state, a list of which fields changed, and the previous status/conclusion values for easy comparison.
Action
Create System
Tool to register a new system. Use when attempting to create a system via API. Note: JumpCloud does not support system creation through its REST API. Use agent installation to enroll systems.
Why this helps
Job-level failures can be buried inside a larger run, especially when the problem is machine-specific.
- Separates machine failures from code failures
- Creates a concrete runner investigation action
- Protects focus by reducing notification triage
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and JumpCloud to Notis once.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3Use this instruction: When a GitHub Actions job fails, create a JumpCloud system record for investigating the runner or device and report the job conclusion.
- 4Choose the workflow-job-state trigger, select a run-report channel, and test with one failed job.
Questions about this workflow
Can this cover only self-hosted runners?
Yes. Tell Notis to act only when the job context identifies a self-hosted runner.
Does it modify the runner?
No. It creates the JumpCloud system follow-up for investigation.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Jumpcloud. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
GitHub triggers
Jumpcloud actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Create System
Tool to register a new system. Use when attempting to create a system via API. Note: JumpCloud does not support system creation through its REST API. Use agent installation to enroll systems.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Delete Role
Tool to delete a specific JumpCloud role by its ID. Use when you need to remove a role after confirming the ID. Call only after ensuring the role is no longer assigned.
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.
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.
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.
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.
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.
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.
