Monitor GitHub Repository Changes with Email

Critical documentation or config files change in your repo and your team has no way of knowing unless they check GitHub daily. Notis creates an email alert in HubSpot whenever those files are modified so stakeholders are informed instantly.

Trigger

Repository Content Changed

Triggers when the content of a file or directory in a GitHub repository changes. Monitors a specified path within a repository on a given branch or tag. For a single file, fires ``content_changed`` when the file is modified. For a directory, fires ``content_changed``, ``content_added``, or ``content_removed`` for modified, new, or deleted entries respectively. content.

Action

Create email

Creates a new email engagement record in hubspot, requiring portal-specific `properties` (e.g., `hs timestamp` as a utc millisecond timestamp), and that association `to id`s and `associationtypeid`s are valid and existing.

Why this helps

Important repository changes (documentation, configuration, API specs) go unnoticed because stakeholders don't monitor GitHub, leading to outdated information and miscommunication.

  • Instant awareness of critical file changes
  • Reduce information staleness across teams
  • Automatic stakeholder notification

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and HubSpot to Notis.
  • 2Open Automations.
  • 3Write: 'When the README.md, API documentation, or configuration files change in GitHub, create an email notification in HubSpot alerting our product and engineering teams with a link to the changes.'
  • 4Select: GitHub > Repository Content Changed.
  • 5Specify which files or directories to monitor and confirm.

Questions about this workflow

Can we monitor specific files only (e.g., README and API docs)?

Yes. Tell Notis exactly which files or directory patterns to watch.

Will this spam us with alerts for every change?

Notis batches changes to the same file within an hour into one alert to reduce notification volume.

Can we include a diff of what changed in the email?

Yes. Notis can include the actual file changes or a summary of what was modified.
