Give Bitly campaign follow-up a clear GitHub owner
Put the next step and its owner together by sending campaign context to Notis and adding the right people to the tracking issue.
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
Campaign follow-ups can sit unowned when link activity and GitHub issue tracking happen in separate places.
- Start follow-up from a Notis webhook request.
- Add the supplied assignees to the specified issue.
- Keep campaign work attached to an actionable GitHub record.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Bitly and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3Describe in one instruction which supplied issue and assignees should be updated for the Bitly event.
- 4Choose the Notis webhook trigger and send the repository, issue number, and assignee usernames in the request.
- 5Choose a report channel and test with one real campaign event and issue.
Questions about this workflow
Does Bitly directly trigger the workflow?
No Bitly trigger events are listed. A Notis webhook request starts it and can carry the relevant Bitly context.
What if the connected GitHub user cannot update the issue?
GitHub may silently ignore assignee changes when the authenticated user lacks push access to the repository.
Can this remove existing assignees?
The action supports adding or removing assignees. This workflow is intended to add the assignees specified in the webhook context.

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.
