Create a Zoho Desk ticket for every new GitHub code scanning alert
Code scanning alerts are easy to lose in a wall of GitHub notifications. Notis catches each new alert and turns it into a Zoho Desk ticket you can triage on your own schedule, so a real vulnerability never quietly slips past you.
Trigger
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.
Action
Create Ticket
Tool to create a new Zoho Desk ticket with subject, description, department, and requester details. Use when you need to create a support ticket in Zoho Desk. Returns the created ticket with id and webUrl for downstream chaining.
Why this helps
New security alerts appear in GitHub, but you only notice them days later when you happen to open the Security tab, and by then the context is gone.
- Every alert becomes a concrete ticket instead of a fleeting notification you scroll past
- Security triage lives next to your customer tickets, so you review it in one place
- You decide when to look, without fear of missing a critical finding
- The alert details land in the ticket automatically, so you keep the full context
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Zoho Desk to Notis once from your portal.
- 2Open Automations, create a new automation, and write the outcome in plain language: when GitHub raises a new code scanning alert, open a Zoho Desk ticket describing it.
- 3Pick the GitHub new code scanning alert trigger and choose the channel where Notis should report each run.
- 4Test it by letting one real alert flow through, then confirm the ticket appears in Zoho Desk.
Questions about this workflow
Do I have to configure which alert details go where?
No. You describe what you want in one sentence and Notis reads the alert and writes a clear ticket for you. There are no field-mapping screens.
Will low-severity alerts flood my Zoho Desk?
You can tell Notis in plain language to only open tickets for higher-severity findings, and it will follow that instruction.
Where do I see that the automation actually ran?
Notis reports each run to the channel you choose, such as Telegram or email, so you always have a trail.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link GitHub to Zoho desk. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
GitHub triggers
Zoho desk actions
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.
Create Contact
Tool to create a new contact in Zoho Desk with name, email, and other details. Use this action when you need to add a new contact to the system, such as when onboarding a new customer or registering a support requester. Returns the created contact with id and webUrl for downstream operations.
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.
Create Ticket
Tool to create a new Zoho Desk ticket with subject, description, department, and requester details. Use when you need to create a support ticket in Zoho Desk. Returns the created ticket with id and webUrl for downstream chaining.
New Branch Created
Triggers when a new branch is created in a GitHub repository. Detects newly created branches. Deleted branches do not fire events.
Download Ticket Attachment
Download a file attachment from a Zoho Desk ticket by attachment ID. Use this action when you need to retrieve a specific file that was previously attached to a ticket. Requires both the ticket ID and the attachment ID to identify the file to download.
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.
Get Agent
Tool to fetch details of a Zoho Desk agent. Use when you have an agent ID and need its full data, optionally including related resources.
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.
Get Agents Count
Tool to get the total count of agents in Zoho Desk. Use when you need the number of agents optionally filtered by status, confirmation, or light agents.
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.
