Know when important issues close or reopen
A changed issue state can change your plan. Make it visible immediately.
Trigger
New Issue Event
Triggers when a new issue event occurs in a GitHub repository. Covers all issue timeline events such as issues being closed, reopened, assigned, unassigned, labeled, unlabeled, milestoned, demilestoned, renamed, locked, or unlocked. Events can optionally be filtered by type. The payload includes the event type, timestamp, the actor who triggered the event, the affected issue details, and any associated commit references.
Action
Send Message
Tool to send a push notification with optional title, URL, priority, sound, attachments, and filters.
Why this helps
Closed and reopened issues can alter commitments without reaching the people relying on them.
- Catch reopened work quickly
- Confirm when commitments are completed
- Reduce manual status checking
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Pushover to Notis once.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it.
- 3Use this instruction: Send a Pushover update when a monitored GitHub issue is closed or reopened, explaining the state change, issue title, actor, and link.
- 4Pick the issue-event trigger and choose the channel for run reports.
- 5Test it with one real state change.
Questions about this workflow
Can only reopened issues trigger alerts?
Yes. Tell Notis to ignore close events if only reopened work needs attention.
Can completed issues use a quiet notification?
Yes. Ask Notis to use a lower-priority message for closures.
