  • Catch assignment constraints during handoff planning.
  • Keep the result available in the Notis run report.

  • 2Create an automation that checks whether the supplied user can be assigned to the supplied GitHub issue.
  • 3Pick the Notis webhook trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 4Test with one real issue and user, then review the result.
