Move trusted fork contributions forward
Reduce waiting on safe, reviewed contributions while keeping the approval step explicit.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Approve a workflow run for a fork pull request
Approves a workflow run from a forked repository's pull request; call this when such a run requires manual approval due to workflow configuration.
Why this helps
Valid external contributions stall because workflow approval requests compete with everything else.
- Reduces contributor waiting time
- Keeps approval tied to review evidence
- Prevents repeated manual checks
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Docparser and GitHub to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3Use one instruction: approve a fork pull request workflow run only when the parsed review record confirms the repository, pull request, and trust criteria.
- 4Select the incoming webhook trigger, choose the reporting channel, and test with one approved fork pull request.
Questions about this workflow
Can it approve every fork run?
No. Define the review and trust conditions that must be met before Notis acts.
Why use a webhook?
A webhook can send the parsed approval immediately when the review process completes.

Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Accept a repository invitation
Accepts a pending repository invitation that has been issued to the authenticated user.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
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.
List stargazers
Deprecated: lists users who have starred a repository; use `list stargazers` instead.
Star a repository for the authenticated user
Deprecated: stars a repository for the authenticated user; use `star a repository for the authenticated user` instead.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.
Docparser and GitHub, or any other combination from 1,000+ integrations.
