Notis

Keep track of whether your GitHub account starred a repository

Use a scheduled check to confirm the star status of a GitHub repository when that detail matters to your routine.

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

Small follow-ups, like confirming a repository star, can disappear among larger tasks when there is no reminder to check.

  • Check star status on a recurring schedule.
  • Get the result in a chosen report channel without manually opening the repository.
  • Use a named repository in the instruction to keep the check focused.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Cloudflare and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations > New Automation and name the star-status check.
  • 3Tell Notis to check whether your authenticated GitHub account has starred the repository you specify and summarize the result.
  • 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real repository.

Questions about this workflow

Does the action add a star if one is missing?

No. This action checks whether the repository is starred by the authenticated user; it does not add a star.

Does this workflow need a Cloudflare event?

No. Cloudflare has no listed trigger events. This workflow uses a Notis recurring schedule and checks GitHub.

What happens if the repository is not starred?

The check action can fail, for example with a 404, when the repository is not starred or does not exist. The run report can convey the outcome.

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.

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.

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