Make ownership changes real in GitHub
A responsibility change becomes an access change while everyone still has the same context.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Add or update team repository permissions
Sets or updates a team's permission level for a repository within an organization; the team must be a member of the organization.
Why this helps
Teams can be assigned new work in planning tools but remain blocked or over-permissioned in GitHub.
- Aligns ownership with repository permissions
- Reduces permission-related interruptions
- Makes team transitions easier to complete
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Fomo and GitHub to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create a webhook automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3Tell Notis: “When Fomo assigns a team to a repository, set that GitHub team’s repository permission to the level stated in the event.”
- 4Choose the webhook and report channel, then test with one team assignment.

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.
Fomo and GitHub, or any other combination from 1,000+ integrations.
