Route inventory builds to the right repository runner
Make new operational build requirements visible to GitHub Actions immediately.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Add runner labels
Adds and appends custom labels to a self-hosted repository runner, which must be registered and active.
Why this helps
A runner may be available but lack the label that lets an inventory workflow target it.
- Speeds runner configuration
- Keeps labels additive
- Supports targeted builds
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Boxhero and GitHub in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation for runner labeling.
- 3Tell Notis to add the custom labels named in the Boxhero webhook to the specified active repository runner.
- 4Pick notis_webhook and a report channel.
- 5Test with one runner and label set.
Questions about this workflow
Are existing labels preserved?
Yes. The action appends labels and does not remove existing ones.

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.
Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.
Boxhero and GitHub, or any other combination from 1,000+ integrations.
