Prepare customer updates for failed GitHub workflows
Have a clear, calm message ready when a release workflow needs to be paused.
Trigger
GitHub Workflow Run State Changed
Triggers when a GitHub Actions workflow run's status or conclusion changes. Monitors a single workflow run and fires an event whenever it transitions between states (e.g., queued to in_progress, or in_progress to completed) or when its conclusion is set (e.g., success, failure, cancelled).
Action
Add campaign
Create a new mailchimp campaign.

- Creates a reviewable draft
- Reduces last-minute wording pressure

- 1Connect GitHub and Mailchimp to Notis once.
- 2Create a New Automation in the portal.
- 3Tell Notis to draft a holding campaign when the selected release workflow concludes with failure, choose the workflow state trigger, and pick a report channel.
- 4Run a safe failed workflow test and review the draft.
