Validate GitHub issue assignment from Landbot
Catch assignment blockers before they create another round of coordination.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Check if a user can be assigned to an issue
Checks if a specified github user can be assigned to a given issue within a repository.
Why this helps
A request is ready to route, but the intended owner cannot be assigned to the issue and the failure appears late.
- Prevents avoidable assignment failures
- Makes triage more predictable
- Reduces back-and-forth about repository permissions
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Landbot and GitHub to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it in plain language.
- 3Use one instruction: before routing a Landbot request, check whether the proposed GitHub user can be assigned to the target issue and report the result.
- 4Pick an incoming webhook trigger and choose where Notis should report runs.
- 5Test with one real issue and proposed assignee.
Questions about this workflow
Is this the same as assigning the issue?
No. It verifies whether assignment is possible so a later routing step can be handled confidently.
What if the user cannot be assigned?
Notis can report the blocker and preserve the context for a human decision.

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