Keep GitHub team membership aligned with your people tasks
Write the organization, team, username, and member or maintainer role in Todoist. Notis handles the GitHub update.
Trigger
New Task Created
Trigger when a new task is added to Todoist.
Action
Add or update team membership for a user
Adds a github user to a team or updates their role (member or maintainer), inviting them to the organization if not already a member; idempotent, returning current details if no change is made.
Why this helps
Team membership changes are small enough to defer but important enough to block ownership and reviews.
- Unblock new teammates quickly
- Handle member and maintainer changes
- Avoid duplicate work with an idempotent action
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Todoist in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation prompt that adds or updates the named user's GitHub team role from each new Todoist people task.
- 3Select New Task Created and where Notis should send run reports.
- 4Test with a real organization team and a controlled account.

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.
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.
New Task Created
Trigger when a new task is added to Todoist.
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.
