Notis

Block GitHub users from an organization

Apply organization access decisions from the review list where your team already records them.

Trigger

Webhook received

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

Action

Block a user from an organization

Blocks an existing github user from an existing organization, preventing their contributions, collaboration, and forking of the organization's repositories.

Why this helps

Organization access changes wait because the decision and the admin action happen in different places.

  • Shortens response time for access issues
  • Keeps the decision context attached
  • Provides a clear execution report

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Checkvist and GitHub in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation that blocks the named GitHub user from the specified organization after the Checkvist task records approval.
  • 3Choose a notis_webhook trigger and send the approved request to its webhook.
  • 4Choose a report channel and test with one authorized organization case.

Questions about this workflow

Does this delete the user account?

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.

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