Approve requested GitHub fork workflow runs
When a trusted review process requests approval, pass the identified fork run to GitHub.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Approve a workflow run for a fork pull request
Approves a workflow run from a forked repository's pull request; call this when such a run requires manual approval due to workflow configuration.
Why this helps
A fork pull request run can wait while its approval request gets separated from the work queue.
- Makes requested run approvals easier to act on promptly.
- Keeps the run identifier attached to the approval request.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Appdrag and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation that approves the specified fork pull request workflow run when the request calls for manual approval.
- 3Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 4Test with one real run that is awaiting approval.
Questions about this workflow
Does this approve every fork pull request run?
No. The request should identify a specific run that requires manual approval.
Can the action approve a run that is already running?
This action is for a fork pull request workflow run awaiting manual approval; provide the correct repository and run details.

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