Turn an issue handoff into GitHub assignees

When a handoff names who should own the next step, send its context to Notis and add those people to the GitHub issue.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

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

Ownership can disappear between a conversation and the issue tracker, leaving follow-up unclear.

  • Carry ownership details into the issue tracker
  • Reduce manual follow-up after handoffs
  • Keep issue ownership visible to the team

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ai ml api and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
  • 3Describe how AI should find intended assignees in the submitted handoff and add them to the specified issue.
  • 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real handoff and issue number.

Questions about this workflow

Will GitHub always accept the requested assignees?

The action adds or removes issue assignees. GitHub may silently ignore changes if the authenticated account lacks push access to the repository.

Can AI infer an owner when none is named?

Ask the prompt to use only clearly named people. Supply a decision rule or missing context if the handoff does not identify an owner.

ActionInstant

List stargazers

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.

Ai ml api and GitHub, or any other combination from 1,000+ integrations.
