Keep approved GitHub integrations moving
Turn an integration request into the exact repository access it needs.
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
App setup stalls when someone has to remember a separate repository-access step after installation.
- Shorten integration setup
- Reduce permission omissions
- Keep app access intentional
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Nango and GitHub to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis to create it from a conversation.
- 3Describe the outcome: add the approved repository to the named GitHub app installation.
- 4Choose an incoming webhook trigger, select a report channel, and test with one approved integration request.
Questions about this workflow
Can this grant broad organization access?
The action adds a specified repository to an existing app installation, so the prompt can keep access scoped.
What if the repository is already connected?
The workflow can report the current result without requiring a second manual setup.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Nango to GitHub. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Nango 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.
