Notis

Handle client escalation access from one request

Turn an escalation request into a clear repository access action, with the client and collaborator context carried into GitHub.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

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.

Why this helps

Escalation handoffs can stall while someone separately tracks down the repository and invites the right collaborator.

  • Reduce manual steps during an escalation handoff.
  • Add a collaborator or update their permission when already present.
  • Keep the request tied to relevant client context.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect AgencyZoom and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation from Automations, New Automation, and name it for escalation access.
  • 3Tell Notis in one instruction how to identify an authorized collaborator and the repository from the request context.
  • 4Choose a webhook trigger, select where run reports should go, and test with one real example.

Questions about this workflow

Will this workflow grant access without an explicit request?

The instruction should limit the action to a clear, authorized escalation request. GitHub may create an invitation or update permissions directly.

Can it choose the repository automatically?

Only if the request or connected context gives Notis enough information to identify it. The action is for an existing repository.
