Notis

Check GitHub assignee eligibility from Habitica triage

Catch an ownership problem before it becomes another unfinished follow-up.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Check if a user can be assigned

Verifies if a github user can be assigned to issues in a repository; assignability is confirmed by an http 204 (no content) response, resulting in an empty 'data' field in the response.

Why this helps

A task can look handed off even when the proposed owner cannot receive it.

  • Prevents failed handoffs
  • Keeps triage decisive

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Habitica and GitHub to Notis once.
  • 2Create a new automation in the portal or ask Notis to make one.
  • 3Describe checking whether the intended GitHub user can be assigned during triage.
  • 4Select the webhook trigger and report channel.
  • 5Test it with one known assignable user.

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.

ActionInstant

Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.
