Approve GitHub fork runs after Dropbox review
Once the decision is documented, the waiting workflow should not need another chase.
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
Why this helps
A founder records approval in Dropbox but still has to find and manually approve the corresponding fork pull request run in GitHub.
- Moves documented approval into GitHub promptly
- Reduces waiting on approved contributions
- Preserves a clear review-to-action trail
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Dropbox and GitHub to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create the automation in Automations -> New Automation, or ask Notis to create it conversationally.
- 3Tell Notis to read a Dropbox review record and approve the matching GitHub fork pull request workflow run only when the record explicitly approves it.
- 4Use a Notis webhook trigger, choose a reporting channel, and test with one approved review record.
Questions about this workflow
Does this approve every fork run?
No. The instruction should require an explicit approval and identify the matching pull request.
Can Notis report skipped reviews?
Yes. Ask it to report when approval is missing or the matching run cannot be identified.
