Update GitHub team repository access from email
Make approved team access changes less likely to become a forgotten admin task.
Trigger
New Email Received
Trigger for new emails in an AgentMail inbox
Action
Add or update team repository permissions
Sets or updates a team's permission level for a repository within an organization; the team must be a member of the organization.
Why this helps
A simple permission approval gets stranded between the inbox and GitHub administration.
- Keeps teams unblocked
- Reduces admin context switching
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Agent Mail and GitHub to Notis once.
- 2Create a new portal automation.
- 3Describe which approval emails should update access for a named team and repository.
- 4Choose New Email Received, select a run-report channel, and test with a noncritical team.

New Email Received
Trigger for new emails in an AgentMail inbox
Accept a repository invitation
Accepts a pending repository invitation that has been issued to the authenticated user.
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.
Not just Agent mail and GitHub. Any combination from 1,000+ integrations.
