Handle repository access from a launch handoff
When a client launch needs a new repository collaborator, send Notis the Agiled handoff details and let it add the named GitHub user.
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
Repository access requests can be lost between client launch planning and engineering setup.
- Move repository access requests into the launch handoff.
- Reduce the chance that a contributor is blocked on day one.
- Keep the access request tied to its supplied client and project context.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Agiled and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for launch access requests.
- 3Tell Notis to add the named GitHub user as a collaborator on the repository included in the request.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real access request containing the repository and GitHub username.
Questions about this workflow
Will this grant repository access without an invitation?
GitHub may create an invitation or update permissions directly, depending on the repository and collaborator. The action requires the relevant repository access rights.
Can this trigger directly from an Agiled event?
Agiled trigger events are not available in this package. Use a Notis webhook request containing the launch access request.

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.
