Notis

Apply approved team access consistently

Make access changes follow the decision immediately, while the context is still fresh.

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

Approved access requests sit in messages until someone remembers to apply them in GitHub.

  • Close access requests faster
  • Reduce permission inconsistencies
  • Keep decisions and actions connected

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Nango and GitHub to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to make it from a message.
  • 3Describe the outcome: set the named GitHub team's permission for the approved repository to the requested level.
  • 4Choose an incoming webhook trigger, select a report channel, and test with one approved access request.

Questions about this workflow

Is the action safe to repeat?

Yes. Updating an existing team permission is idempotent when no change is needed.

Can this be limited to approved requests?

Yes. Include that condition in the plain-language prompt.

ActionInstant

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.

ActionInstant

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.

ActionInstant

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.

ActionInstant

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.

ActionInstant

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

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