Notis

Grant secret access after infrastructure approval

Apply secret-access decisions carefully, with the meeting approval and repository in the same workflow.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Add repo to org secret with selected access

Adds a repository to an existing organization-level github actions secret that is configured for 'selected' repository access.

Why this helps

Infrastructure approvals are easy to forget, leaving builds blocked or secrets broader than intended.

  • Reduces build-access delays
  • Keeps secret scope intentional
  • Connects approval to implementation
  • Cuts sensitive configuration admin

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Calendarhero and GitHub to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it conversationally.
  • 3Use this instruction: When a Calendarhero infrastructure webhook confirms access, add the approved repository to the specified selected-access GitHub organization secret.
  • 4Select an incoming webhook trigger, choose the run-report channel, and test with one nonproduction repository.

Questions about this workflow

Does this create a new secret?

No. It grants a repository access to an existing selected-access organization secret.

Can approval be restricted to infrastructure meetings?

Yes. Require the relevant Calendarhero meeting type and explicit approval in the instruction.

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.

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