Keep Labels Visible to Your Team
When issue labels change in GitHub, Notis posts an update to Slack so the team sees new categorization.
Trigger
GitHub Issue Labels Changed
Triggers when the labels on a specific GitHub issue change. Fires whenever a label is added to, removed from, or has its metadata (color, description) modified on the monitored issue. The payload includes: - ``current_labels`` -- the full set of labels currently on the issue - ``added_labels`` -- labels that were newly added - ``removed_label_names`` -- names of labels that were removed - ``changed_label_names`` -- labels whose metadata changed without being added or removed
Action
Post message to channel
Deprecated: posts a message to a slack channel, direct message, or private channel. use `send message` instead.
Why this helps
Label changes often go unnoticed, making it hard to track how issues are being categorized and prioritized.
- Team sees when issues are labeled as bugs, features, or urgent
- Tracks prioritization changes in real time
- Creates a searchable history of label changes in Slack
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Slack to Notis
- 2Tell Notis: 'Post when issue labels change'
- 3Describe the outcome: 'When labels are added or removed from an issue, post the change to Slack with the new label set'
- 4Select the trigger: GitHub Issue Labels Changed
- 5Choose which issue or repository to monitor
- 6Test by adding a label to an issue you're tracking
Questions about this workflow
Can I filter by label type?
Yes. Tell Notis to only post changes for priority labels or security labels, for example.
What if an issue gets many labels at once?
Notis will show all new labels in a single post, or create individual posts if you prefer.
Can I see who changed the labels?
Yes. Notis will include the person who made the change.
