Notis

Handle approved repository invitations

Turn an approved access request into a clear next step for the authenticated GitHub account.

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

Pending invitations are easy to overlook after an access request has been approved.

  • Reduce missed pending invitations
  • Connect document review approvals to repository onboarding
  • Make access follow-up easier to track

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Affinda and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to accept the pending repository invitation only when the supplied request identifies an approved invitation for the authenticated GitHub user.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger, select where run reports go, and test with one real approved request.

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.

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.
