Notis

Give new repositories the shared variables they need

Write the organization, repository, and existing variable in a Todoist task. Notis completes the GitHub access change.

Trigger

New Task Created

Trigger when a new task is added to Todoist.

Action

Add selected repository to an organization variable

Grants a repository access to an organization-level github actions variable, if that variable's visibility is set to 'selected repositories'.

Why this helps

Environment rollouts become harder to diagnose when a repository silently lacks access to a shared Actions variable.

  • Reduce configuration drift
  • Complete rollouts from Todoist
  • Receive a direct completion report

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and Todoist to Notis.
  • 2Ask Notis to add the repository named in a new Todoist task to the specified organization Actions variable.
  • 3Choose the New Task Created trigger and a channel for reports.
  • 4Test with a variable whose visibility is selected repositories.

Questions about this workflow

Which variables are supported?

Supported Triggers and Actions

Notis builds workflows that link Todoist to GitHub. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

Todoist triggers

GitHub actions

Recurring trigger

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

TriggerScheduled

Accept a repository invitation

Accepts a pending repository invitation that has been issued to the authenticated user.

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

TriggerInstant

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.

ActionInstant

New Task Created

Trigger when a new task is added to Todoist.

TriggerPolling

List stargazers

Deprecated: lists users who have starred a repository; use `list stargazers` instead.

ActionInstant

Star a repository for the authenticated user

Deprecated: stars a repository for the authenticated user; use `star a repository for the authenticated user` instead.

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.

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