Move event tooling access requests into GitHub

Keep repository access moving when event teams need to work on shared tooling.

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

Event teams can lose time waiting for someone to translate an access request into a GitHub change.

  • Reduce manual access request handling
  • Make event tooling collaboration quicker to set up
  • Keep the request and action connected in run reports

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect ChMeetings and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3In one instruction, tell Notis how to verify an event tooling request and add or update the appropriate collaborator.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real request and verify the repository and collaborator.

Questions about this workflow

Can the action invite someone who is not a collaborator yet?

Yes. GitHub may create an invitation when the person is not already a collaborator.

What permission level will a personal repository use?

Personal repositories default to push access and ignore the permission field. Organization repositories support a permission value.
