List Render instances when a GitHub deployment status is created
A deployment status in GitHub says the intent, but your running Render instances say the truth. Notis catches each new deployment status and lists your live instances so you can confirm the rollout landed instead of assuming it did.
Trigger
New Deployment Status Created
Triggers when a new deployment status is created for a specific deployment. Fires an event for each newly created deployment status on the monitored deployment. Deployment statuses represent state transitions such as pending, in_progress, success, failure, error, inactive, and queued. The payload includes the status state, creator, environment, description, timestamps, and relevant URLs.
Action
List Instances
Tool to list instances of a service. Use when you need to retrieve all instances for a specific Render service.
Why this helps
GitHub says the deployment succeeded, but you still are not sure the new instances actually came up healthy. Checking means another login, and half the time you just skip it and hope.
- Verify the rollout with a live instance list, not just a green status.
- Catch instances that failed to come up before your users do.
- Remove the manual double-check that you keep skipping.
- Turn a deployment status into real confirmation you can trust.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Render to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Open your portal link and create a New Automation.
- 3Write the instruction: when a new GitHub deployment status is created, list my Render instances and report them to me.
- 4Choose the New Deployment Status Created trigger and set your reporting channel.
- 5Create a test deployment status and confirm the instance list arrives.
Questions about this workflow
What does the instance list tell me?
It shows the instances currently running for your Render service, so you can confirm the deployment produced healthy running copies.
Can I limit this to production deployments?
Yes. Add that to the plain-language instruction and Notis will only act on the deployments you describe.
Is any coding involved?
None. The whole automation is one sentence you write to Notis.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Render. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
GitHub triggers
Render actions
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.
Add Header Rule
Tool to add a custom HTTP header rule to a Render service. Use when you need to configure headers like Cache-Control, security headers, or CORS headers for specific request paths.
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.
Add or Update Secret File
Tool to add or update a secret file for a Render service. Use when you need to create a new secret file or update the content of an existing secret file.
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.
Add Resources to Environment
Tool to add resources to a Render environment. Use when you need to associate services, databases, Redis instances, or environment groups with an existing environment.
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.
Add Route
Tool to add redirect or rewrite rules to a Render service. Use when you need to configure URL routing, redirects, or rewrites for a service. Redirect rules send HTTP redirects to clients, while rewrite rules modify the request path internally.
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 Custom Domain
Tool to add a custom domain to a Render service. Use when you need to configure a custom domain for a service.
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 Environment Group
Tool to create a new environment group. Use when you need to create a shared collection of environment variables and secret files that can be used across multiple services.
New Repository Collaborator Added
Triggers when a new collaborator is added to a GitHub repository. Monitors the full list of collaborators on a repository and fires an event for each newly added collaborator. The payload includes the collaborator's GitHub username, account ID, profile URL, avatar URL, permission flags (pull, triage, push, maintain, admin), and assigned role name.
Create Environment
Tool to create a new environment within a Render project. Use when you need to set up a new environment for organizing services, databases, and other resources.
Commit Event
Triggered when a new commit is pushed to a repository.
Create Postgres Instance
Tool to create a new Postgres instance on Render. Use when you need to provision a new PostgreSQL database with configurable plan, version, and region.
