Notis

Keep asset workflow app access current

Schedule an access update for the repository that an existing GitHub App installation needs to support asset work.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

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.

Why this helps

App access may be missed when a repository is added to a workflow after the initial setup.

  • Automates a known repository access update
  • Supports repeatable workflow administration
  • Keeps the repository and installation explicit

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 which repository should be added to the existing GitHub App installation.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with an installation and repository the authenticated user can administer.

Questions about this workflow

Does this grant access to an app that is not installed?

No. The GitHub App installation must already exist, and the authenticated user needs access to it and admin rights for the repository.

Can it add several repositories?

The action adds a repository to an installation. Identify the intended repository in the instruction.

ActionInstant

List stargazers

Deprecated: lists users who have starred a repository; use `list stargazers` instead.

ActionInstant

Star a repository for the authenticated user

Deprecated: stars a repository for the authenticated user; use `star a repository for the authenticated user` instead.

ActionInstant

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.

ActionInstant

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.

ActionInstant

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.

ActionInstant

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.

ActionInstant

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

Apiframe and GitHub, or any other combination from 1,000+ integrations.
