Check GitHub repository access on demand
Send Notis the repository and username to verify collaborator status without manually searching repository settings.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Check if a user is a repository collaborator
Checks if a user is a collaborator on a specified github repository, returning a 204 status if they are, or a 404 status if they are not or if the repository/user does not exist.
Why this helps
You need a quick access check, but finding the right repository settings interrupts the work already in front of you.
- Check access from a supplied repository and username
- Keep access questions tied to a request
- Get a report without navigating repository settings
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notis to GitHub in the portal once.
- 2Create an automation in Notis and give it a clear name.
- 3Tell Notis to check whether the username in each request is a collaborator on its specified repository.
- 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real repository and a username.

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