Notis

Assign GitHub bug owners from customer email

Keep reported bugs moving while the details are still fresh.

Trigger

New Email Received

Trigger for new emails in an AgentMail inbox

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

A founder spots a customer report, intends to assign it later, and the issue sits unowned.

  • Creates clear ownership quickly
  • Keeps support details out of your mental queue

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Agent Mail and GitHub to Notis once.
  • 2In Automations, create a new automation.
  • 3Write a prompt that assigns the matching GitHub bug issue to the appropriate owner when a customer report arrives.
  • 4Choose New Email Received as the trigger, pick a run-report channel, and test with one real report.

Questions about this workflow

Do I need to map email fields to GitHub?

No. Describe the assignment rule in plain language and Notis handles the context.

Trigger for new emails in an AgentMail inbox

TriggerPolling

ActionInstant

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.

ActionInstant

List stargazers

Deprecated: lists users who have starred a repository; use `list stargazers` instead.

ActionInstant

Star a repository for the authenticated user

Deprecated: stars a repository for the authenticated user; use `star a repository for the authenticated user` instead.

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.

ActionInstant

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

Not just Agent mail and GitHub. Any combination from 1,000+ integrations.
