Route Beaconstac campaign alerts to a GitHub issue owner
Give campaign problems a clear owner as soon as their alert reaches Notis.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Add assignees to an issue
Adds or removes assignees for a github issue; changes are silently ignored if the authenticated user lacks push access to the repository.
Why this helps
An alert can make the problem visible without making it clear who is expected to act.
- Give campaign follow-up a clear owner
- Reduce manual issue triage
- Keep alert response in the existing GitHub workflow
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Beaconstac and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation by telling Notis to find the related GitHub issue when a Beaconstac alert arrives and assign it to the responsible user.
- 3Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 4Test with one real webhook and a matching GitHub issue.
Questions about this workflow
Will this create an issue if there is no matching one?
This workflow is intended to assign an existing related issue. Ask Notis to report when it cannot identify a match; the listed GitHub action only adds or removes assignees.
What if the issue assignee is not assignable?
GitHub may reject or ignore an assignment depending on repository access. Test with a user who can be assigned in that repository.

Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Accept a repository invitation
Accepts a pending repository invitation that has been issued to the authenticated user.
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.
