Notis

Move repository access requests into GitHub

Send an access request to Notis, apply your stated approval rules with AI, and add the collaborator to the right repository.

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

Access requests get buried across messages, leaving teams unsure whether anyone has granted access.

  • Keep access requests moving from intake to GitHub.
  • Apply consistent approval criteria from your prompt.
  • Reduce the need to switch between request messages and repository settings.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Apipie AI and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3Describe how to review the submitted access request and add the approved GitHub user as a repository collaborator.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real access request.

Questions about this workflow

Will every request be granted automatically?

Your prompt should define the approval criteria. This workflow uses the collaborator action to add the specified user, so only send requests that meet your stated rules.

Can it set collaborator permissions?

The action accepts a permission for organization-owned repositories. Personal repositories default to push permission and ignore that field.

What happens if the person is not already a collaborator?

GitHub may create an invitation. If they already collaborate, the action can update their permission.
