Route priority company signals to GitHub issue owners
Give Notis the signal, issue, and ownership guidance so the right people see related work.
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
A high-priority company signal can go unnoticed when nobody connects it to an issue owner.
- Make ownership easier to act on
- Reduce manual triage after a company signal
- Keep priority work visible to the right people
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Akta and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation named for assigning issues from company priorities.
- 3Tell Notis to read the incoming company signal and issue details, apply your ownership guidance, and add appropriate assignees.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real signal, issue, and ownership example.
Questions about this workflow
What information should the webhook request include?
Include the Akta company signal and the GitHub repository and issue details. Provide any ownership rules in the automation prompt.
Will an assignment always succeed?
GitHub may silently ignore assignment changes if the authenticated account lacks push access to the repository.

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.
Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.
