Organize food research work in GitHub
Route a food or ingredient request through an Api Ninjas lookup, then add the label that keeps its GitHub issue easy to find.
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
Food research requests can be hard to group when intake details and GitHub labels are handled separately.
- Organizes food research issues as requests arrive.
- Uses a supplied item for the relevant lookup.
- Keeps triage visible in the repository.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Api Ninjas and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel.
- 3Describe the supplied food item, matching GitHub issue, and label to add in one instruction.
- 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real item and matching research issue.

Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
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.
Api ninjas and GitHub, or any other combination from 1,000+ integrations.
