Put contributors in the right GitHub team
A clear team structure makes collaboration easier. Let Notis handle the membership update when a supporter becomes a contributor.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Add or update team membership for a user
Adds a github user to a team or updates their role (member or maintainer), inviting them to the organization if not already a member; idempotent, returning current details if no change is made.
Why this helps
Founders remember to invite contributors but forget the follow-up step of adding them to the right team.
- Finish onboarding in one flow
- Apply the correct contributor role
- Avoid forgotten team updates
- Make repository access easier to manage
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ko-fi and GitHub once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis in plain language.
- 3Use this instruction: When a Ko-fi supporter becomes an approved contributor, add them to the named GitHub team with the appropriate role.
- 4Select an incoming webhook trigger, choose run-report delivery, and test with one contributor.
Questions about this workflow
Can this update an existing team member?
Yes. GitHub keeps the current membership details when no change is needed.
Can I define different roles?
Yes. State the role rules directly in the automation prompt.

Ko fi 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.

Not just Ko fi and GitHub. Any combination from 1,000+ integrations.
