Keep sprint labels organized across GitHub and Sheets
Each sprint, you create a new planning sheet. Notis instantly labels all the GitHub issues in that sprint, so your team can filter by sprint name right in GitHub.
Trigger
New Sheet Added in Google Spreadsheet
Polling trigger that detects when a new sheet is added to a Google Spreadsheet.
Action
Add labels to an issue
Adds labels (provided in the request body) to a repository issue; labels that do not already exist are created.
Why this helps
Sprints live in spreadsheets and GitHub separately. When you create a new sprint, you either manually label every GitHub issue or you skip it and lose sprint visibility. GitHub becomes hard to filter by sprint.
- Automatic sprint label application saves hours per cycle
- GitHub issues instantly filterable by sprint
- Reduce manual labeling overhead
- Keep sprint context visible everywhere
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect your Google Sheets and GitHub accounts to Notis
- 2Create an automation: 'When I create a new sprint sheet, add sprint labels to all related GitHub issues'
- 3Select 'New Sheet Added in Google Spreadsheet' as your trigger
- 4Tell Notis the sheet name pattern (e.g., 'Sprint 24') and which GitHub label to apply
- 5Run it for your next sprint and watch issues get labeled automatically
Questions about this workflow
How does Notis know which issues belong to which sprint?
You can reference issues in your sprint sheet by ID, URL, or milestone name. Notis reads your sheet structure and matches them to GitHub issues.
Can I label issues in multiple GitHub repositories at once?
Yes. If you have one spreadsheet tracking sprints across multiple repos, Notis can label issues in all of them.
What if the GitHub issue doesn't exist yet?
Notis will report which issues couldn't be found. You can then create them or fix the reference in your sheet.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Google Sheets to GitHub. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Google Sheets triggers
GitHub actions
Aggregate Metric Changed
Triggers when an aggregate metric (SUM/COUNT/AVG/MIN/MAX) changes in a Google Sheets spreadsheet. This trigger monitors an aggregate calculation on a target column (optionally filtered by a search column/value) and fires when the calculated result changes.
Accept a repository invitation
Accepts a pending repository invitation that has been issued to the authenticated user.
Cell Range Values Changed
Triggers when values in a specified A1 range change in Google Sheets. This trigger monitors a specific cell or range of cells and fires when any values change.
List repositories starred by the authenticated user
Deprecated: lists repositories starred by the authenticated user, including star creation timestamps; use 'list repositories starred by the authenticated user' instead.
Conditional Format Rule Changed
Triggers when conditional formatting rules change in a Google Spreadsheet. Detects when rules are added, updated, or removed. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect changes between polls.
List stargazers
Deprecated: lists users who have starred a repository; use `list stargazers` instead.
Data Validation Rule Changed
Triggers when data validation rules change (added/updated/removed) in a Google Spreadsheet. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect changes between polls.
Star a repository for the authenticated user
Deprecated: stars a repository for the authenticated user; use `star a repository for the authenticated user` instead.
Developer Metadata Changed
Triggers when developer metadata entries change (new/updated/removed) in a Google Spreadsheet. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect changes between polls.
Add email for auth user
Adds one or more email addresses (which will be initially unverified) to the authenticated user's github account; use this to associate new emails, noting an email verified for another account will error, while an existing email for the current user is accepted.
Filtered Range Values Changed
Polling trigger that monitors Google Sheets filtered ranges for value changes. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect when values matching a data filter change. Emits the matched values when changes are detected.
Add app access restrictions
Replaces github app access restrictions for an existing protected branch; requires a json array of app slugs in the request body, where apps must be installed and have 'contents' write permissions.
New Rows in Google Sheet
Simple polling trigger that monitors Google Sheets for new rows. Detects when new rows are added and returns the complete row data. Perfect for triggering any workflow based on new sheet entries.
Add a repository collaborator
Adds a github user as a repository collaborator, or updates their permission if already a collaborator; `permission` applies to organization-owned repositories (personal ones default to 'push' and ignore this field), and an invitation may be created or permissions updated directly.
New Sheet Added in Google Spreadsheet
Polling trigger that detects when a new sheet is added to a Google Spreadsheet.
Add a repository to an app installation
Adds a repository to a github app installation, granting the app access; requires authenticated user to have admin rights for the repository and access to the installation.
