Move trusted preview builds forward
Once the supporting file check is complete, the waiting build can continue without another manual checkpoint.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Approve a workflow run for a fork pull request
Approves a workflow run from a forked repository's pull request; call this when such a run requires manual approval due to workflow configuration.
Why this helps
A safe, known step can still stall because approval is buried in GitHub notifications.
- Removes a repetitive approval pause
- Keeps review gates explicit
- Helps external contributors get timely feedback
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Cloudconvert and GitHub to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it in plain language.
- 3Use this instruction: When Cloudconvert reports that the required preview scan for a fork pull request is complete and approved, approve the waiting GitHub workflow run for that pull request.
- 4Select an incoming webhook trigger, choose a report channel, and test with one trusted fork run.
Questions about this workflow
Is this safe for every fork?
No. Restrict the instruction to trusted repositories, contributors, or callbacks that explicitly pass the required check.
What if the run is not waiting for approval?
Notis should report that no approval action was needed.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Cloudconvert to GitHub. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Cloudconvert triggers
GitHub actions
Accept a repository invitation
Accepts a pending repository invitation that has been issued to the authenticated user.
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.
