Keep alt text work visible in GitHub
Send a webhook when an image needs attention, and Notis can label its related GitHub issue for a clear accessibility review queue.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Add labels to an issue
Adds labels (provided in the request body) to a repository issue; labels that do not already exist are created.
Why this helps
Alt text requests can disappear among general issues, leaving image accessibility work easy to miss.
- Makes image accessibility tasks easier to spot
- Keeps related work in the repository issue queue
- Reduces manual issue triage
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect AltTextLab and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a clear name.
- 3Describe in one instruction how to identify the matching issue and add an existing or new alt text review label.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real image review request and confirm the right issue is labeled.
Questions about this workflow
Does AltTextLab provide a trigger event?
No. Start this automation with a Notis webhook, such as an HTTP request from your process when an image needs review.
Can Notis decide which GitHub issue to label?
Describe the matching clues in your instruction, such as a repository and issue number. If the request lacks enough information, provide those details in the webhook payload.

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.
