Route CRM Escalations to GitHub Issue Owners
Send an escalation with its issue reference and owners, and keep the next step visible in GitHub.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Add assignees to an issue
Adds or removes assignees for a github issue; changes are silently ignored if the authenticated user lacks push access to the repository.
Why this helps
A CRM escalation can reach the right people in a conversation while the linked GitHub issue remains unassigned.
- Make ownership visible on the linked GitHub issue.
- Use the requested assignee details provided with each escalation.
- Reduce context switching between CRM and issue triage.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Capsule CRM and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations > New Automation and name it for escalation routing.
- 3In one instruction, tell Notis to use the issue reference and requested GitHub usernames in the incoming escalation to update assignees.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real escalation and a GitHub issue where you have push access.
Questions about this workflow
Will GitHub always apply the requested assignments?
GitHub can silently ignore assignment changes if the authenticated user lacks push access to the repository. Test with an issue in a repository where that account has the required access.
What if the escalation does not include an issue reference?
Include a GitHub issue reference or a clear matching rule in the webhook request. The action needs an issue to update.

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.
