Start transformation work when a feature reference begins
The first branch or tag creates a visible data-work starting point before implementation gets crowded.
Trigger
New Git Reference Created
Triggers when a new Git reference (branch or tag) matching a specified prefix is created in a repository. Fires an event for each newly created branch or tag whose name matches the configured prefix. Use ``ref_prefix`` to control what is monitored: - ``heads/`` to watch all branches - ``heads/feature/`` to watch only feature branches - ``tags/`` to watch all tags - ``tags/v`` to watch tags starting with 'v' The payload includes the full reference name, node ID, the SHA and type of the Git object the reference points to, and the reference API URL.
Action
Create Transformation
Tool to create a RudderStack transformation. When publish=false (default), creates an unpublished transformation not available to event traffic. When publish=true, publishes the transformation making it live for incoming events and connectable to destinations.
Why this helps
Data work can be forgotten at branch creation because the transformation task is tracked somewhere else.
- Creates an early implementation cue
- Reduces forgotten downstream work
- Lets founders review scope before the feature is complete
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and RudderStack Transformation once in Notis.
- 2Create “Feature reference creates transformation draft.”
- 3Use this instruction: “When a monitored GitHub feature branch or tag is created for a data change, create an unpublished RudderStack transformation draft describing the intended work.”
- 4Select New Git Reference Created, choose run-report delivery, and test with one feature reference.
Questions about this workflow
Can it watch only feature branches?
Yes. Configure the reference prefix for the feature branches you use.
Why create a draft so early?
It captures the data-work intent before the feature moves through several tools and conversations.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to RudderStack Transformation. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
GitHub triggers
RudderStack Transformation actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Create Library
Tool to create a library in RudderStack Transformation. Use when you need to create reusable JavaScript or Python code that can be imported in transformations. Libraries enable code reusability and version maintenance.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Create Transformation
Tool to create a RudderStack transformation. When publish=false (default), creates an unpublished transformation not available to event traffic. When publish=true, publishes the transformation making it live for incoming events and connectable to destinations.
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.
Delete Transformation
Delete a published transformation by ID. Note that RudderStack never deletes a transformation revision. Use this when you need to remove a transformation from the system.
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.
Get library by ID
Retrieves a single published library by its unique identifier. Use when you need to fetch details of a specific library.
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.
Get Library Version
Tool to retrieve a single library version by library ID and version ID. Use when you need to fetch details of a specific library revision in RudderStack transformations.
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.
Get Transformation
Tool to retrieve a published transformation by its ID from RudderStack. Use when you need to fetch details about a specific transformation including its code, version, and associated destinations.
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.
Get Transformation Version
Retrieve a single transformation revision by transformation ID and version ID. Use when you need to get details about a specific version of a RudderStack transformation.
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.
List All Libraries
Tool to retrieve all published libraries for a workspace. Use when you need to list available libraries for transformations.
