Process repository invitations found in parsed emails
When Airparser extracts a repository invitation email, Notis can accept the pending invitation for the connected GitHub account.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Accept a repository invitation
Accepts a pending repository invitation that has been issued to the authenticated user.
Why this helps
Repository invitations can sit in email while access setup waits on someone to notice and accept them.
- Reduce delay between receiving and accepting a repository invitation.
- Use extracted email details to guide invitation processing.
- See the result in the Notis run report.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Airparser and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
- 3Describe in one instruction when a parsed email represents an intended repository invitation and should be accepted.
- 4Pick the Notis webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Send one real invitation email extraction and confirm the connected account has the pending invitation.
Questions about this workflow
Does this accept any invitation mentioned in an email?
The automation should accept only when the parsed email indicates an invitation intended for the authenticated GitHub user. GitHub accepts a pending invitation issued to that user.
Will this grant access if no invitation is pending?
No. The GitHub action accepts a pending repository invitation. A mention in parsed text alone does not create one.

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.
