Move partner repository access requests forward
Send a partner request to Notis with the GitHub account and repository. It can use Api Ninjas for relevant enrichment, then create the collaborator invitation.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
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.
Why this helps
Partner access requests get buried while someone gathers context and repeats the same invitation steps.
- Turns a specified access request into a collaborator invitation.
- Uses supplied request details to reduce manual context gathering.
- Keeps partner access work in the GitHub repository workflow.
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 partner context to enrich and the named GitHub account and repository to invite in one instruction.
- 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real partner request and an authorized repository.
Questions about this workflow
What details do I need to supply?
Include the GitHub username and repository, plus the partner details relevant to your Api Ninjas lookup.
Does this action grant access immediately?
It adds the user as a collaborator or creates an invitation. The authenticated account must have the required repository access.
Should I use it for every partner automatically?

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.
