Notis

Check issue assignment before handing work over

Remove one more uncertainty from turning an Insighto conversation into owned work.

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 to an issue

Checks if a specified github user can be assigned to a given issue within a repository.

Why this helps

A handoff stalls when the proposed owner cannot actually be assigned to the issue.

  • Check the exact issue and proposed owner.
  • Catch assignment blockers before promising ownership.
  • Keep the workflow read-only and easy to retry.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Insighto ai and GitHub to Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation to check the supplied issue and candidate username.
  • 3Choose an incoming webhook and a report channel.
  • 4Send one real handoff payload and review the eligibility result.

Questions about this workflow

Does this assign the person automatically?

No. It only checks whether the named user can be assigned to the named issue.

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.

Insighto ai and GitHub, or any other combination from 1,000+ integrations.
