Notis

Keep contributor access decisions visible

A focused review helps you catch an unexpected block before it turns into a confusing support thread.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Check if a user is blocked by an organization

Checks if a github user is blocked by an organization; a successful response (204 no content) indicates the user is blocked, while a 404 not found error indicates the user is not blocked.

Why this helps

Access anomalies are hard to diagnose when contributor records and GitHub organization status are reviewed separately.

  • Spot access anomalies
  • Shorten troubleshooting
  • Create a clear review trail

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Blackbaud and GitHub to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it conversationally.
  • 3Instruct Notis to check whether active Blackbaud contributors are blocked by the GitHub organization and report any unexpected blocks.
  • 4Choose a recurring monthly trigger and select the run-report channel.
  • 5Test with one active contributor.

ActionInstant

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.

ActionInstant

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.

ActionInstant

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.

ActionInstant

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.

ActionInstant

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

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