Notis

Add GitHub access for a new contractor

Make access requests explicit and repeatable when a new specialist joins the team.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Add a repository collaborator

Add a user as a repository collaborator or update their access.

Why this helps

Access setup gets delayed because the founder has to remember repositories, usernames, and permission decisions separately.

  • Shortens onboarding time
  • Creates a clear access request trail
  • Reduces permission mistakes

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect 2chat and GitHub to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create the automation in Automations -> New Automation or ask Notis conversationally.
  • 3Use this instruction: When an approved contractor access request arrives through 2chat, add the named GitHub user to the specified repository with the approved permission.
  • 4Choose an incoming webhook trigger and report channel, then test with one approved request.

Questions about this workflow

Can this require approval first?

Yes. Make the webhook available only to your approved onboarding process and state that approval is required.

Can access be added to more than one repository?

Yes. Include the approved repository list in the incoming request or instruction.
