Check public URLs mentioned in new commits

Let routine reference checks happen while you keep building.

Trigger

Commit Event

Triggered when a new commit is pushed to a repository.

Action

Scrapfly Scrape

Tool to perform a web scraping request. Use when you need to fetch a page with custom configuration like JS rendering, proxies, and extraction.

Why this helps

Commit messages can contain important links that nobody has time to validate manually.

  • Finds unreachable references early
  • Reduces tiny but distracting verification tasks

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Scrapfly once in Notis.
  • 2Create a new automation in the portal.
  • 3Describe how Notis should scrape public URLs mentioned in new commit messages.
  • 4Pick Commit Event and the channel for reports.
  • 5Push a test commit with a public URL.

Questions about this workflow

Can it ignore commits without links?

Yes. Ask Notis to run only when a public URL is present.

Supported Triggers and Actions

Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Scrapfly. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

GitHub triggers

Scrapfly actions

ActionInstant

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.

TriggerPolling

Create Scrapfly Crawler

ActionInstant

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.

TriggerPolling

Extract Structured Data

Tool to extract structured data from HTML or other content using AI models, LLM prompts, or custom templates. Use when you need to parse web pages or documents into structured JSON data. Supports predefined extraction models for common types (articles, products, events) or custom extraction via prompts/templates.

ActionInstant

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.

TriggerPolling

Get Crawler Contents

Tool to retrieve extracted content from crawled pages. Supports multiple output formats including markdown, text, HTML, and JSON. Use when you need to access the actual content extracted during a crawl, with optional filtering by URL and format selection.

ActionInstant

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.

TriggerPolling

Get Crawler Status

Tool to get the current status of a crawler including progress, pages crawled, and completion state. Use for polling workflow to monitor crawl progress.
