Keep repository invitations from blocking Bolna work

Schedule a check for the GitHub repository access needed by your Bolna agent work and accept the intended pending invitation.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Accept a repository invitation

Accepts a pending repository invitation that has been issued to the authenticated user.

Why this helps

A repository invitation can sit unnoticed and block follow-up work when it arrives outside the usual context.

  • Make invitation follow-up part of a recurring routine.
  • Accept a pending invitation when it matches the specified Bolna work.
  • Reduce the chance of overlooking repository access.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Bolna and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to accept a pending GitHub repository invitation only when it matches the repository and Bolna work context you specify.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real pending invitation.

Questions about this workflow

Will it accept every invitation?

The instruction should specify which repository or Bolna work context qualifies. The GitHub action accepts a pending invitation for the authenticated user.

Can this discover invitations through Bolna?

Bolna has no listed trigger events here, so this workflow starts on a Notis schedule and uses the specified Bolna context.

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.

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

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