Turn approved CheckFlow access into GitHub collaboration
Finish access checklists by adding the approved collaborator automatically.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
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
Approved access requests wait in a queue while someone manually updates GitHub.
- Shorten access turnaround
- Apply the requested permission
- Create an auditable handoff
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect CheckFlow and GitHub in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation named Approved collaborator access.
- 3Tell Notis to read the approved checklist and add the named user to the repository.
- 4Choose the CheckFlow webhook trigger and report channel.
- 5Test with one approved access item.
