Audit DNS settings when issue scope changes
When an issue changes shape, quickly confirm that the surrounding setup still fits.
Trigger
Issue State / Properties Changed
Triggers when a specific GitHub issue changes any of its tracked properties. Monitored properties: state (open/closed), state_reason, title, body, assignees, labels, milestone, lock status, active_lock_reason, comment count, and closed_at timestamp. When a change is detected, the payload includes the full current issue details, the list of changed field names, and their previous values.
Action

Why this helps
Scope changes create hidden operational work that is easy to miss between issue updates.
- Creates a context check at meaningful issue changes.
- Makes configuration drift visible.
- Helps avoid carrying outdated assumptions.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and NextDNS to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3Use this instruction: When the monitored GitHub issue changes tracked properties, list all settings for the selected NextDNS profile and summarize anything relevant to the issue.
- 4Select the issue properties trigger, choose the reporting channel, and test with one real update.
