Set up contractor access without the access scramble
A project start can trigger the repository invitation your contractor needs to begin work.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
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
Temporary collaborators can wait hours for access while the founder coordinates logistics and delivery.
- Shorten project setup time
- Reduce permission-task reminders
- Keep access tied to a clear business event
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Booqable and GitHub to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to set it up.
- 3Use this instruction: When an approved Booqable project contractor starts, add that person as a collaborator to the specified GitHub repository with the appropriate permission.
- 4Choose an incoming webhook trigger, select the reporting channel, and test with one approved contractor.
Questions about this workflow
Can this grant admin access automatically?
The instruction should request the minimum permission needed for the contractor's work.
What if the person is already a collaborator?
GitHub can update the collaborator permission when the user already has access.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Booqable to GitHub. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

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