Review repository star status on a schedule

Keep a defined list of assessment-supporting repositories in view with a recurring GitHub star status check.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Check if repo starred by auth user

Use to determine if the authenticated user has starred a specific github repository, which is confirmed by an http 204 status (resulting in an empty dictionary in the response data); the action fails (e.g., http 404) if the repository is not starred or does not exist.

Why this helps

Remembering to check several project repositories manually adds low-value maintenance work.

  • Check multiple specified repositories on a recurring schedule.
  • See the authenticated user's star status in one report.
  • Reduce repetitive repository-by-repository checks.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Classmarker and GitHub once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation that checks each repository in the list you provide and summarizes the results.
  • 3Pick a Notis cron schedule and choose a report destination.
  • 4Test with one real repository before expanding the list.

Questions about this workflow

Does this discover repositories from Classmarker?

No. Supply the repositories or a clear list in the automation prompt. The selected action checks a specified repository.

Can it add missing stars?

No. This workflow only checks star status.

Recurring trigger

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

TriggerScheduled

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.

TriggerInstant

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.

ActionInstant

List stargazers

Deprecated: lists users who have starred a repository; use `list stargazers` instead.

ActionInstant

Star a repository for the authenticated user

Deprecated: stars a repository for the authenticated user; use `star a repository for the authenticated user` instead.

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.

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