Keep CRM project access in sync with GitHub collaborators
Run a recurring review of selected project records and grant repository access to the collaborators identified in the CRM.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
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
Access requests accumulate when nobody has a simple reminder to review active project records.
- Create a regular checkpoint for project access requests.
- Use CRM records to identify collaborators and repositories for review.
- Reduce missed access updates during active projects.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect CentralstationCRM and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for the access review.
- 3Tell Notis to review the specified active CRM project records and add or update the identified GitHub collaborators where access is requested.
- 4Choose a recurring schedule and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real project record and review the resulting access change.
Questions about this workflow
Does the scheduled review remove access when a deal closes?
No. The listed collaborator action adds a user or updates their permission; it does not remove collaborators.
Can Notis infer which repositories are involved?
Only if the CRM records or your instruction provide enough information to identify the repositories and GitHub users.

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.
