Check team access to a GitHub project
Prevent planning work from stalling because project access was assumed instead of verified.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Check team permissions for a project
Checks if a team has 'read', 'write', or 'admin' permissions for an organization's specific classic project, returning the project's details if access is confirmed.
Why this helps
A team meeting starts with someone unable to view or update the project that holds the work.
- Avoids meeting-time access surprises
- Keeps planning systems usable
- Reduces last-minute permission requests
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub to Notis once through the portal; connect 2chat for optional chat reports.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis in plain language.
- 3Use this instruction: Before each planning cycle, check whether the named GitHub team has the expected permission for the specified organization project and report any issue.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and report channel, then test with one project.

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.
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.
2chat and GitHub, or any other combination from 1,000+ integrations.
