Monitor Workflow Job Execution in Notion

Each new job created in a GitHub Actions workflow automatically gets a tracking page in Notion showing the job name, status, assigned runner, and execution details.

Trigger

New Workflow Job Added

Triggers when a new job appears in a specific GitHub Actions workflow run. This is useful for detecting matrix-expanded jobs that are added after the initial workflow run creation, or any other scenario where jobs are dynamically added to an existing run.

Action

Create Notion page

Creates a new empty page in a notion workspace.

Why this helps

Workflow job execution is hidden inside GitHub Actions, making it hard for non-engineers to understand why a build is taking time.

  • Make workflow execution visible without accessing GitHub
  • Track job execution patterns and identify bottlenecks
  • Share build progress with non-technical stakeholders
  • Maintain a log of workflow jobs for analysis

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Notion to Notis.
  • 2Ask Notis: 'When a new workflow job is created, add it to my Notion jobs tracker with the job name, status, and runner.'
  • 3Select the 'New Workflow Job Added' trigger and your notification channel.
  • 4Trigger a workflow run and watch jobs appear in Notion as they're created.

Questions about this workflow

Can I filter to specific workflows?

Yes. Tell Notis to 'Only track jobs from the deploy workflow' or 'Monitor only test-related jobs.'

Does this update job status in Notion?

This automation creates pages when jobs are created. To track status changes, set up a second automation using the job status changed trigger.

Supported Triggers and Actions

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

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

Add multiple content blocks (bulk, user-friendly)

Efficiently adds multiple standard content blocks to a notion page in a single api call with automatic markdown parsing. the 'content' field in notionrichtext blocks now automatically detects and parses markdown formatting including headers (# ## ###), bold (**text**), italic (*text*), strikethrough (~~text~~), inline code (`code`), links ([text](url)), and more. ideal for bulk content creation, ai agents, and replacing multiple individual add page content calls. supports automatic text formatting, content splitting, and up to 100 blocks per request.

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

Add content to Notion page

Deprecated: appends a single content block to a notion page or a parent block (must be page, toggle, to-do, bulleted/numbered list, callout, or quote); invoke repeatedly to add multiple blocks.

ActionInstant

New Branch Created

Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.

TriggerPolling

Append complex blocks (advanced, full control)

Appends complex blocks with full notion block structure to a parent block or page. use for advanced scenarios requiring precise control: code blocks, tables, embeds, nested children within blocks, or when working with pre-built notion block objects. requires full notion api block schema - use add multiple page content for simpler content creation.

ActionInstant

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.

TriggerPolling

Archive Notion Page

Archives (moves to trash) or unarchives (restores from trash) a specified notion page.

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

Create comment

Adds a comment to a notion page (via `parent page id`) or to an existing discussion thread (via `discussion id`); cannot create new discussion threads on specific blocks (inline comments).

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

Create Notion Database

Creates a new notion database as a subpage under a specified parent page with a defined properties schema; use this action exclusively for creating new databases.

ActionInstant

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.

TriggerPolling

Create Notion page

Creates a new empty page in a notion workspace.

ActionInstant

Commit Event

Triggered when a new commit is pushed to a repository.

TriggerInstant

Delete a block

Archives a notion block, page, or database using its id, which sets its 'archived' property to true (like moving to "trash" in the ui) and allows it to be restored later.
