Bring the right collaborator into an asset review

When an Apiframe asset needs an outside reviewer, add the specified person to the repository from the review request.

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

A review can stall while someone manually finds the right repository and sends a collaboration invitation.

  • Starts repository access from the review request
  • Reduces context switching during handoffs
  • Can update permission for an existing collaborator

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Apiframe and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Describe in one instruction when to add the specified reviewer as a collaborator on the linked repository.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with a real review request containing a repository and GitHub username.

Questions about this workflow

Will this always send an invitation?

GitHub may create an invitation or update permissions directly, depending on the repository and the authenticated user's access.

Can the automation decide who gets access?

The webhook or your instruction must identify the intended GitHub user and repository. The action does not discover reviewers by itself.
