Route weather-related incidents to the right issue owner
When a weather incident is reported, Notis can check current conditions and assign the related GitHub issue to the owner you specify.
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
Incident reports can sit unassigned while someone checks local conditions and figures out who should take the next step.
- Adds an owner to a related incident issue sooner.
- Uses weather context from Api Ninjas as part of the triage instruction.
- Keeps assignment attached to the GitHub issue.
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 how to identify the location, check weather, match the issue, and choose an eligible GitHub assignee in one instruction.
- 4Choose a webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real incident request and an assignable GitHub username.
Questions about this workflow
What does the webhook need to provide?
Include the location and enough information to identify the GitHub repository and issue. Also specify an intended assignee in the instruction or request context.
Can this action assign anyone?
GitHub may ignore assignment changes if the authenticated user lacks push access, and the chosen user must be assignable for the repository.
Does a weather result automatically decide who is on call?
No. Supply the routing rule or intended assignee. Api Ninjas weather data alone does not define your on-call rotation.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Api ninjas to GitHub. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

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.
