Route issues after checking contact details
Have Notis check submitted contact details and assign the related issue when it is ready for your team's next step.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Add assignees to an issue
Adds or removes assignees for a github issue; changes are silently ignored if the authenticated user lacks push access to the repository.
Why this helps
Issues that need contact verification often sit unowned because someone has to check the details and then remember to assign them.
- Reduce the handoff between checking contact details and assigning an issue.
- Keep assignment criteria in a plain-language instruction.
- Help verified reports reach an owner sooner.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Addressfinder and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Tell Notis in one instruction which submitted details to validate and when to assign the related issue to a specified eligible GitHub username.
- 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real example and a username that can be assigned in the repository.
Questions about this workflow
How does Notis decide whether to assign the issue?
You state the validation criteria and assignment rule in the automation instruction. Include the intended GitHub username in the request or instruction.
Can GitHub reject an assignment?
Yes. GitHub only assigns eligible users, and changes may be ignored if the authenticated account lacks push access to the repository.
What information should the webhook request include?
Include the details to validate, the related repository and issue, and the username to assign if the stated criteria are met.

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