Give approved SEO repositories the secret access they need
A trusted project-intake webhook prompts Notis to add the specified repository to an existing selected-access GitHub Actions secret.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Add repo to org secret with selected access
Adds a repository to an existing organization-level github actions secret that is configured for 'selected' repository access.
Why this helps
Automation credentials are often the last forgotten dependency discovered after a new repository workflow fails.
- Prevents credential-related onboarding failures
- Keeps secret values out of the webhook and prompt
- Grants access only to approved repositories
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Semrush and GitHub to Notis once and ensure the organization Actions secret already uses selected-repository access.
- 2Tell Notis to add each approved Semrush project repository to that named secret's access list without handling the secret value.
- 3Choose an incoming webhook trigger and a secure channel for run reports.
- 4Test with a sandbox repository in the organization.
Questions about this workflow
Does Notis need the secret value?
No. This action changes which repository can use an existing secret; the value is not included.
Can the repository belong to another organization?
No. It must belong to the organization that owns the selected-access secret.

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