Finish approved repository handoffs by accepting the invitation

If an approved handoff is waiting on your pending repository invitation, send that signal to Notis to accept it in GitHub.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Accept a repository invitation

Accepts a pending repository invitation that has been issued to the authenticated user.

Why this helps

A pending repository invitation can block a handoff even after the related document is complete.

  • Reduce the chance of a pending invitation being forgotten.
  • Connect a completed handoff with the next GitHub access step.
  • Use Notis run reports to see whether the action completed.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ActiveMerge and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
  • 2In Automations, choose New Automation and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to accept the pending repository invitation for the authenticated GitHub user when the approved handoff request arrives.
  • 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Send one real approved handoff example for a pending invitation to the webhook and review the run report.

Does the webhook identify an invitation by repository?

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.
