Check project access when a planning signal arrives
If a scorecard review or planning process raises a project access question, a webhook can start a check of the named team's permissions.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Check team permissions for a project
Checks if a team has 'read', 'write', or 'admin' permissions for an organization's specific classic project, returning the project's details if access is confirmed.
Why this helps
Project access questions can pull focus from planning when the right permission details are scattered across GitHub.
- Run a project access check in response to a process signal.
- Check the permission for the specified team and project.
- Keep the result attached to the automation report.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect BSC Designer and GitHub once in Notis.
- 2Create an automation in any channel or in Automations, New Automation.
- 3Describe how the webhook identifies the organization, team, and project, then ask Notis to check permissions.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real organization, team, and project request.

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.
