Notis

Keep repository runner labels up to date

Make runner labeling part of a regular maintenance routine. Notis can add the custom labels you specify to an active repository runner.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Add runner labels

Adds and appends custom labels to a self-hosted repository runner, which must be registered and active.

Why this helps

Runner labels drift from current needs, making it harder for teams to select the right runner.

  • Apply custom labels on a recurring basis
  • Make runner capabilities easier to identify
  • Avoid repeatedly updating labels by hand

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Apilio and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3In one instruction, specify the active repository runner and custom labels to add.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one active runner and verify its labels.

Questions about this workflow

Does this replace existing runner labels?

No. The action adds custom labels and keeps existing labels; it does not add duplicates.

What kind of runner can this action update?

The runner must be registered and active in the repository.

ActionInstant

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.

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