Create a response list when a secret alert appears

A detected secret can trigger a calm, structured communication step instead of a scramble through old notes.

Trigger

New Secret Scanning Alert Detected

Triggers when a new secret scanning alert is detected in a GitHub repository. Monitors open secret scanning alerts and fires an event for each newly detected alert. Supports filtering by secret type (e.g., personal access tokens, AWS keys) and by token validity status (active, inactive, unknown). The payload includes the alert number, secret type, validity status, resolution state, timestamps, URLs, and flags for push protection bypass, public exposure, and multi-repo detection.

Action

Add Recipient to Group

Tool to add a recipient to a recipient group. use when you need to add new mailing list subscribers.

Why this helps

Secret incidents create high cognitive load, and contact follow-up is often the first thing to be deferred.

  • Creates a response-ready contact list
  • Reduces incident coordination effort
  • Helps preserve stakeholder trust

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Stannp once via the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation or ask Notis to add the relevant incident contacts to a Stannp response group when a secret alert appears.
  • 3Select the new secret scanning alert trigger and describe the alert condition in plain language.
  • 4Choose a report channel and test with one safe example or test alert.

Questions about this workflow

Can it distinguish active secrets?

Yes. Tell Notis to use the GitHub validity or secret-type context available in the trigger.

Does this expose the secret value?

No. The workflow should use alert metadata and contact context, never the secret itself.
