Keep volunteer-related GitHub issues assigned
Run a scheduled check to keep ownership of volunteer coordination follow-up visible in GitHub.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Add assignees to an issue
Adds or removes assignees for a github issue; changes are silently ignored if the authenticated user lacks push access to the repository.
Why this helps
Issue ownership can drift when volunteer coordination changes and nobody remembers to update GitHub.
- Make ownership easier to review
- Reduce missed assignment updates
- Keep volunteer coordination work visible in GitHub
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 give it a clear name.
- 3In one instruction, describe how to review volunteer coordination information and update assignees on matching GitHub issues.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real example and check the assignee changes.
Questions about this workflow
Can ChMeetings start this automation directly?
ChMeetings exposes no trigger events in this package, so Notis runs it on the recurring schedule you choose.
Can it remove an assignee as well as add one?
Yes. The GitHub action supports adding or removing assignees. Describe the conditions for each in your instruction.

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