Connect a GitHub repository to an approved app
Make a narrowly scoped integration change when an app needs one more repository.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
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.
Why this helps
Integration setup gets risky when a request does not name the exact repository, installation, and admin authority.
- Use an exact repository and installation ID.
- Require explicit repository-admin scope.
- Make the resulting app access visible.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Insighto ai and GitHub to Notis once.
- 2Create an automation using the supplied repository, installation ID, and explicit admin authorization.
- 3Choose an incoming webhook and a report channel.
- 4Test once with a real, approved enrollment request.
Questions about this workflow
Can a transcript choose the installation?
No. The payload must provide the exact installation and authenticated admin scope.

Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Accept a repository invitation
Accepts a pending repository invitation that has been issued to the authenticated user.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
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.
Insighto ai and GitHub, or any other combination from 1,000+ integrations.
