Keep transformations aligned with GitHub releases
Release edits become a focused transformation update instead of another thing to remember.
Trigger
GitHub Release State Changed
Triggers when a specific GitHub release (identified by tag name) changes. Monitors the release title, body/notes, draft flag, prerelease flag, published timestamp, target branch/commit, and the set of attached assets. The payload includes the full current release details, a list of which fields changed, and the previous values for comparison.
Action
Update Transformation
Tool to update and optionally publish a RudderStack transformation. Use when you need to modify a transformation's name, description, or code. Updating creates a new revision and sets it as published if the publish flag is true.
Why this helps
Release notes and attached assets can change after the first publish, leaving data logic out of sync.
- Keeps release-driven data logic current
- Reduces repeated release-page checking
- Creates a clear update trail in RudderStack
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and RudderStack Transformation once.
- 2Create “Release change updates transformation.”
- 3Use this instruction: “When the monitored GitHub release changes, update the related RudderStack transformation using the current release context and keep publishing behavior aligned with the release stage.”
- 4Select GitHub Release State Changed, choose a channel for reports, and test with one draft release change.
Questions about this workflow
Does every release edit trigger a publish?
Not necessarily; specify whether the transformation should remain unpublished or be published for the relevant release stage.
Can assets be included?
Yes. Notis can use the release event context in its instruction.

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.
