Notis

Align GitHub team permissions with credentials

Access levels can follow verified responsibility instead of manual memory.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Add or update team repository permissions

Sets or updates a team's permission level for a repository within an organization; the team must be a member of the organization.

Why this helps

Founders often overgrant or undergrant repository access because permission changes lag behind role changes.

  • Keep access proportional to responsibility
  • Reduce permission drift
  • Avoid repeated admin decisions

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Accredible certificates and GitHub to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create a new automation or tell Notis the desired workflow in plain language.
  • 3Use this instruction: When a webhook confirms the specified credential, update the matching GitHub team's permission for the related repository to the level described by the credential context.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger, select a channel for reports, and test with one real team and repository.

Questions about this workflow

Which permissions can this update?

GitHub supports read, write, and admin permission levels for the selected team repository action.

Is the update repeatable?

Yes. Reapplying the same permission is safe and keeps the workflow easy to rerun.

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.
