Track Deployments Without Checking Dashboards
When a GitHub deployment status changes, Notis sends a Slack reminder so you know immediately.
Trigger
GitHub Deployment State Changed
Triggers when a specific GitHub deployment's fields change. Monitors the following aspects of a single deployment: - ``environment`` -- the target environment name - ``original_environment`` -- the original environment name before normalization - ``description`` -- the human-readable deployment description - ``task`` -- the deployment task name - ``sha`` -- the commit SHA being deployed - ``ref`` -- the branch, tag, or SHA reference being deployed - ``updated_at`` -- the last-updated timestamp - ``transient_environment`` -- whether the environment is temporary - ``production_environment`` -- whether this is a production deployment When any of these fields change, an event is emitted containing the full current deployment details and a list of which fields changed.
Action
Create a reminder
Creates a slack reminder with specified text and time; time accepts unix timestamps, seconds from now, or natural language (e.g., 'in 15 minutes', 'every thursday at 2pm').
Why this helps
Deployment statuses require constantly checking dashboards or emails. Neurodivergent developers need explicit status updates in their workflow.
- Know deployment status without checking dashboards
- Immediate alert if deployments fail
- Reduces anxiety about whether changes made it to production
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Slack to Notis
- 2Create an automation: 'Remind me when deployments change status'
- 3Describe the outcome: 'When a GitHub deployment state changes, send a Slack reminder with the environment, status, and timestamp'
- 4Select the trigger: GitHub Deployment State Changed
- 5Choose your Slack channel for deployment updates
- 6Test by creating a deployment in GitHub
Questions about this workflow
Can I filter by environment, like only production?
Yes. Tell Notis to only remind you about production deployments, or create separate automations for different environments.
What if I want different reminders for success vs failure?
Tell Notis to prioritize failures or send them to a different channel.
Can the reminder include what was deployed?
Yes. Notis will include the commit SHA and any changes being deployed.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Slack. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
GitHub triggers
Slack 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.
Set snooze duration
Deprecated: turns on do not disturb mode for the current user, or changes its duration. use `set dnd duration` instead.
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 a custom emoji to a Slack team
Deprecated: adds a custom emoji to a slack workspace given a unique name and an image url. use `add emoji` instead.
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 an emoji alias
Adds an alias for an existing custom emoji in a slack enterprise grid organization.
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 a remote file
Adds a reference to an external file (e.g., google drive, dropbox) to slack for discovery and sharing, requiring a unique `external id` and an `external url` accessible by slack.
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.
Add a star to an item
Stars a channel, file, file comment, or a specific message in slack.
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.
Add call participants
Registers new participants added to a slack call.
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.
Add emoji
Adds a custom emoji to a slack workspace given a unique name and an image url; subject to workspace emoji limits.
Commit Event
Triggered when a new commit is pushed to a repository.
Add reaction to message
Adds a specified emoji reaction to an existing message in a slack channel, identified by its timestamp; does not remove or retrieve reactions.
