Make collaborator research easier to act on

When TikHub shows a useful relationship around a project, confirm the corresponding GitHub connection before you plan outreach.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Check if a user follows another user

Checks if a github user `username` follows `target user`; returns a 204 http status if true, 404 if not or if users are invalid.

Why this helps

Relationship research becomes another open loop when founders cannot remember which developer connections already exist.

  • Reduces repeated outreach research
  • Adds context to collaboration decisions
  • Keeps relationship checks in one routine

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect TikHub and GitHub to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis for it conversationally.
  • 3Use this instruction: Review TikHub relationship signals and check whether each identified GitHub user follows the specified target user.
  • 4Choose a weekly trigger and a channel for run reports, then test with one known relationship.

Questions about this workflow

Can it follow users?

No. It only checks whether one GitHub user follows another.

Why use TikHub here?

TikHub provides the social context that tells Notis which relationships are worth checking.

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

TriggerInstant

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.

ActionInstant

List stargazers

Deprecated: stars a repository for the authenticated user; use `star a repository for the authenticated user` instead.

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.

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