Act on reviewed GitHub blocking decisions
Move a completed incident decision into GitHub without another manual step.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Block a user
Blocks an existing individual github user (not an organization or your own account), preventing them from interacting with your account and repositories.
Why this helps
A safety decision loses value when account controls are updated late.
- Shorten response time
- Tie action to a recorded decision
- Reduce missed safety steps
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect CheckFlow and GitHub in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation named Reviewed GitHub user block.
- 3Tell Notis to block the specified individual user only after the CheckFlow decision is approved.
- 4Choose the CheckFlow webhook trigger and report channel.
- 5Test with one approved incident record.
Questions about this workflow
Can this block an organization?
No. The GitHub action blocks an individual user, not an organization or your own account.
What starts it?
A CheckFlow webhook carrying the approved decision starts the automation.

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.
Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.
CheckFlow and GitHub, or any other combination from 1,000+ integrations.
