Give new hires the GitHub access they need

Make onboarding smoother by turning approved BambooHR hire records into timely GitHub collaborator invitations.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

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

New hires can lose their first productive days waiting for someone to notice their start date and grant repository access.

  • Reduces manual onboarding follow-up
  • Helps hires get access near their start date
  • Uses the repository and permission rules you provide

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect BambooHR and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations by choosing New Automation and entering a name and prompt.
  • 3Describe which BambooHR hires qualify, the repositories they need, and the collaborator access level to grant.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule, choose where run reports go, and save the automation.
  • 5Test with one real hire record and confirm the GitHub invitation and report.

Questions about this workflow

Can Notis decide which repositories a new hire should access?

Tell Notis your team's repository rules in the prompt. BambooHR records alone may not identify the right repositories.

Will this accept the GitHub invitation for the hire?

No. This workflow adds the hire as a collaborator, which may create an invitation. The listed action does not accept invitations.
