Unblock trusted forked hotfix workflow runs
Keep an approval bottleneck from delaying an urgent, reviewed fix.
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
Approves a workflow run from a forked repository's pull request; call this when such a run requires manual approval due to workflow configuration.
Why this helps
An otherwise ready hotfix can stall because a forked pull request needs a manual workflow approval.
- Removes a repeat approval task
- Keeps urgent delivery moving
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect incident.io and GitHub to Notis once.
- 2Create an incoming webhook automation for verified hotfix escalation requests.
- 3In one prompt, instruct Notis to approve the named fork pull request workflow run only for trusted incident hotfixes.
- 4Choose a reporting channel and test with a safe approved example.
Questions about this workflow
Is this for every fork pull request?
No. Limit the prompt to trusted hotfixes approved through your incident process.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link incident.io to GitHub. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
incident.io triggers
GitHub actions
Accept a repository invitation
Accepts a pending repository invitation that has been issued to the authenticated user.
List repositories starred by the authenticated user
Deprecated: lists repositories starred by the authenticated user, including star creation timestamps; use 'list repositories starred by the authenticated user' instead.
List stargazers
Deprecated: lists users who have starred a repository; use `list stargazers` instead.
Star a repository for the authenticated user
Deprecated: stars a repository for the authenticated user; use `star a repository for the authenticated user` instead.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Connect any two apps with Notis in the middle.
Not just incident.io and GitHub. Any combination from 1,000+ integrations.
