Sync Your GitHub Team to Airtable
New team members join your GitHub repo but your Airtable team roster goes out of sync. When a collaborator is added, Notis logs them in Airtable so HR and project management stay current on team membership.
Trigger
New Repository Collaborator Added
Triggers when a new collaborator is added to a GitHub repository. Monitors the full list of collaborators on a repository and fires an event for each newly added collaborator. The payload includes the collaborator's GitHub username, account ID, profile URL, avatar URL, permission flags (pull, triage, push, maintain, admin), and assigned role name.
Action
Create a record
Creates a new record in a specified airtable table; field values must conform to the table's column types.
Why this helps
Team members are added to GitHub but the Airtable team directory isn't updated, creating confusion about who has access and what role they play.
- Team roster in Airtable stays in sync with GitHub
- Always know who has access to what
- Onboarding and offboarding tracked in one place
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and Airtable to Notis.
- 2Create an automation: 'When a new collaborator is added to my GitHub repository, create a record in my team roster with their GitHub username, role (pull, push, maintain, admin), and join date.'
- 3Select 'New Repository Collaborator Added' as the trigger.
- 4Choose your notification channel.
- 5Test by adding a test collaborator to your GitHub repo.
Questions about this workflow
What if someone is removed from GitHub?
Notis doesn't auto-delete. You can mark them as 'inactive' in Airtable manually or set up a separate automation to track removals.
Can I track permission changes?
Currently, only new additions are tracked. Mention in your prompt if you need permission change notifications.
Does this include outside collaborators?
Yes, if they're added as collaborators. Organization members might have separate rules based on your setup.
