Build a Searchable GitHub Actions Archive
Notis creates a dated folder in Google Drive for each GitHub Actions workflow run. Your automation history stays organized without manual folder management.
Trigger
New Workflow Run Created
Triggers when a new workflow run is created in a GitHub repository. Monitors the repository for any new workflow runs and fires an event for each one. Optional filters allow narrowing to a specific branch, actor, or event type.
Action
Create a folder
Creates a new folder in google drive, optionally within a parent folder specified by its id or name; if a parent name is provided but not found, the action will fail.
Why this helps
GitHub Actions logs disappear after 90 days. Important workflow runs (deployments, tests, releases) have no searchable history outside of GitHub.
- Workflow history persists beyond GitHub's retention window
- Organize runs by date or status for easy reference
- Audit trail for deployments and releases stays permanent
- Searchable archive for debugging recurring issues
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Ensure GitHub and Google Drive are connected.
- 2Create your automation: 'When a workflow run is created, create a folder in Google Drive named with the workflow name and date.'
- 3Select 'New Workflow Run Created' as your trigger.
- 4Pick a Notis notification channel.
- 5Trigger a workflow run in your repository to test.
Questions about this workflow
Will Notis organize runs by workflow type or date?
Both. Tell Notis your preference—separate folders by workflow name, by date, or nested (workflow > date). Notis sets up the structure you want.
How long does Notis keep these run records?
Permanently, until you delete them from Drive. Unlike GitHub's 90-day log retention, your workflow history stays accessible in Drive.
Can I include run logs or artifacts in the folder?
Yes. Ask Notis to download workflow logs, test reports, or build artifacts and store them in the corresponding run folder.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Google Drive. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
GitHub triggers
Google Drive actions
New Workflow Artifact Created

Add file sharing preference
Modifies sharing permissions for an existing google drive file, granting a specified role to a user, group, domain, or 'anyone'.
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.
Copy file
Duplicates an existing file in google drive, identified by its `file id`.
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.
Create Comment
Tool to create a comment on a file. use when you need to add a new comment to a specific file in google drive.

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.
Create Shared Drive

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.
Create File or Folder
Creates a new file or folder with metadata. use to create empty files or folders, or files with content by providing it in the request body (though this action primarily focuses on metadata creation).
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.
Create a File from Text
Creates a new file in google drive from provided text content (up to 10mb), supporting various formats including automatic conversion to google workspace types.
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.
Create a folder
Creates a new folder in google drive, optionally within a parent folder specified by its id or name; if a parent name is provided but not found, the action will fail.
