Handle private repository setup requests from Gmail
Turn a clear private repository setup request into a Codemagic application entry.
Trigger
New Gmail Message Received Trigger
Triggers when a new message is received in Gmail.
Action
Add Application from Private Repository
Tool to create an application from a private repository using SSH key authentication. Use when you need to add a new private repository to Codemagic with SSH credentials.
Why this helps
Private repository setup involves credentials and repository details that are easy to leave incomplete in an email thread.
- Route private repository requests to the SSH-authenticated Codemagic action.
- Flag requests that lack required repository or credential information.
- Keep setup outcomes visible in the run report.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Gmail and Codemagic once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
- 3In one instruction, tell Notis to add a private repository only when the email provides the repository details and SSH credentials required by the connected action; report missing information without proceeding.
- 4Choose New Gmail Message Received as the trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one authorized real setup request and review the run report.
Questions about this workflow
Can the email include the SSH key?
The action requires SSH key authentication. Follow your team's credential handling practices and do not send secrets through email unless that is an approved method.
What happens if setup details are incomplete?
Tell Notis to report what is missing and hold the request until the required repository details and authentication information are available.
